This skill creates a note engagement in HubSpot CRM from a short text input. It is triggered by phrases like "create note", "add note", "new note", or "record note" and requires the note body to be provided. The skill returns the created note ID, stored body, and timestamp for confirmation.
The skill sends a request to HubSpot's engagements API to create a note object with the provided body and optional ISO timestamp. It validates the required parameters, uses configured HubSpot credentials and scopes, and returns the created note's ID and properties. If authentication or rate limits block the request, it surfaces concise error codes and remedial guidance.
What parameter is required to create a note?
You must provide the note body text. Without it the note cannot be created.
How do I set the note time?
Provide an ISO 8601 timestamp to preserve the original time; otherwise the current time is used.
What if I get authentication or permission errors?
401 indicates invalid credentials; re-run setup. 403 means missing crm.objects.notes.write scope. 429 means rate limited—wait and retry.
