Frequently asked questions
Can I search for contacts using specific filters?
Yes. The search_contacts tool accepts a JSON array of HubSpot filters. Example: [{"propertyName":"email","operator":"CONTAINS_TOKEN","value":"@company.com"}]. This uses HubSpot's native search API to find contacts matching property values, date ranges, or engagement criteria. Use get_object_schema with 'contacts' to discover all searchable properties.
Can I link contacts to companies and deals?
Yes. Use link_crm_objects with the source object type and ID, target object type and ID, and the association type name. Example: link a contact to a company with fromType='contacts', fromId='123', toType='companies', toId='456', associationType='contact_to_company'. This creates bidirectional CRM relationships.
What type of HubSpot credential do I need?
You need a Private App Access Token from your HubSpot account. This is different from OAuth tokens — it provides direct API access scoped to the permissions you select when creating the Private App. The token is sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header against api.hubapi.com.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
