Getting Started
Configure HubSpot Connectivity for HeidiSQL
Connectivity to HubSpot from HeidiSQL is made possible through CData Connect Cloud. To work with HubSpot data from HeidiSQL, we start by creating and configuring a HubSpot connection.

![]( "Updating permissions")
Add a Personal Access Token
If you are connecting from a service, application, platform, or framework that does not support OAuth authentication, you can create a Personal Access Token (PAT) to use for authentication. Best practices would dictate that you create a separate PAT for each service, to maintain granularity of access.
- Click on your username at the top right of the Connect Cloud app and click User Profile.
- On the User Profile page, scroll down to the Personal Access Tokens section and click Create PAT.
- Give your PAT a name and click Create.
- The personal access token is only visible at creation, so be sure to copy it and store it securely for future use.
