Associate two objects

Notes

Associations unlock many of HubSpot's most advanced capabilities. This code snippet allows you to create an association between two records. 

Note that this code snippet could be more efficient because it’s using the batch association endpoint to associate a single pair of records.

With that said, I tend to prefer this method because I can easily expand the function to include multiple associations but adding objects to the `inputs` array. 

Code

        
Language:  JavaScript


        
 
const axios = require('axios');
const accessToken = `Bearer ${process.env.secretName}`;
 
exports.main = async (event, callback) => {
  const sourceRecordTicketId = event.inputFields['sourceRecordTicketId'];
  const targetRecordId = event.inputFields['targetRecordId'];
 const associationCategory = "HUBSPOT_DEFINED";
 const associationType = 15;
const url = 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v4/associations/contact/ticket/batch/create';
 
const headers = {
  'authorization': accessToken,
  'content-type': 'application/json'
};
 
const data = {
  "inputs": [
    {
      "from": {
        "id": sourceRecordId
      },
      "to": {
        "id": targetRecordId
      },
      "types": [
        {
          "associationCategory": associationCategory,
          "associationTypeId": associationType
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
};
 
axios.post(url, data, { headers })
  .then(response => {
    console.log(`Record ${sourceRecordId} and record ${targetRecordId} associated successfully.`);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('Error:', error.message);
    throw new Error('An error occurred while associating the records.');
  });
}
