Please be sure of your agent type and version and pick the right documentation accordingly.

This is the documentation of the forest-express-sequelize and forest-express-mongoose Node.js agents that will soon reach end-of-support.

forest-express-sequelize v9 and forest-express-mongoose v9 are replaced by @forestadmin/agent v1.

Please check your agent type and version and read on or switch to the right documentation.

Display Hubspot companies

This example shows you how to create a smart collection to list the companies of your Hubspot account.

Requirements

  • An admin backend running on forest-express-sequelize

  • superagent npm package

  • a Hubspot account

How it works

Directory: /forest

This directory contains the hubspot-companies.js file where the collection is declared.

/forest/hubspot-companies.js
const collection = require('forest-express-sequelize');

collection('hubspot_companies', {
  isSearchable: true,
  fields: [
    {
      field: 'id',
      type: 'Number',
    },
    {
      field: 'name',
      type: 'String',
    },
    {
      field: 'hubspot_link',
      type: 'String',
    },
  ],
});

Directory: /routes

This directory contains the hubspot-companies.js file where the serializer for the collection and logic to get records is defined.

Companies information are obtained by making a get all companies call to the Hubspot API.

The Hubspot API key is defined in the .env file and requested through the expression process.env.HUBSPOT_API.

/routes/hubspot-companies.js
const Liana = require('forest-express-sequelize');
const express = require('express');
const superagent = require('superagent');
const JSONAPISerializer = require('jsonapi-serializer').Serializer;

const router = express.Router();

// define the serializer used to format the payload
const hubspotCompaniesSerializer = new JSONAPISerializer('hubspotCompanies', {
  attributes: ['name', 'hubspotLink'],
  keyForAttribute: 'underscore_case',
  id: 'companyId',
  transform(record) {
    record.name = record.properties.name.value;
    record.hubspotLink = `https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/6332498/company/${record.companyId}`;
    return record;
  },
});

function getHubspotCompaniesList(limit, offset) {
  return superagent
    .get(
      `https://api.hubapi.com/companies/v2/companies/paged?hapikey=${process.env.HUBSPOT_API}&properties=name&limit=${limit}&offset=${offset}`
    )
    .then((response) => JSON.parse(response.res.text));
}

async function getAllHubspotCompanies() {
  let allHubspotCompanies = [];
  let hasMore = true;
  let offset = '';
  while (hasMore) {
    let getCompaniesResponse = await getHubspotCompaniesList(250, offset);
    allHubspotCompanies = allHubspotCompanies.concat(
      getCompaniesResponse.companies
    );
    offset = getCompaniesResponse.offset;
    hasMore = getCompaniesResponse['has-more'];
  }
  return allHubspotCompanies;
}

function searchHubspotCompanies(companies, search) {
  return companies.filter((item) => {
    return item.properties.name.value
      .toUpperCase()
      .includes(search.toUpperCase());
  });
}

router.get(
  '/hubspot_companies',
  Liana.ensureAuthenticated,
  async (req, res, next) => {
    // set pagination parameters when exist (default limit is 250 as it is the max allowed by Hubspot)
    let limit = req.query.page ? parseInt(req.query.page.size) : 20;
    let offset = req.query.page
      ? (parseInt(req.query.page.number) - 1) * limit
      : 0;

    // set search terms when exist
    let search = null;
    search = req.query.search ? req.query.search : search;

    let hubspotCompanies = await getAllHubspotCompanies();
    if (search) {
      hubspotCompanies = searchHubspotCompanies(hubspotCompanies, search);
    }
    const count = hubspotCompanies ? hubspotCompanies.length : null;
    const paginateHubspotCompanies = hubspotCompanies.slice(
      offset,
      offset + limit
    );
    const serializedCompanies = hubspotCompaniesSerializer.serialize(
      paginateHubspotCompanies
    );
    return res.send({ ...serializedCompanies, meta: { count } });
  }
);

module.exports = router;
