Configuration
6 fields, 1 required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
note_body The note's text. HubSpot accepts limited HTML and caps it at 65,536 characters. | string | Yes | — | — | Left a voicemail about the renewal. |
associate_object_type Object type of a record to attach the note to — contact, company, deal or ticket. Leave blank to create the note unattached. | string | No | — | — | — |
associate_object_id Record id to attach the note to; used with `associate_object_type`. | string | No | — | — | — |
hubspot_owner_id Id of the owner the note is logged under. | string | No | — | — | — |
properties Further note properties as a JSON object; set `hs_timestamp` here to place the note somewhere other than now on the timeline. | object | No | — | — | — |
associations Records to associate as the record is created, as HubSpot's JSON array of {"to": {"id": "…"}, "types": [{"associationCategory": "HUBSPOT_DEFINED", "associationTypeId": 1}]} objects. | array | No | — | array of object | — |
Example configuration
Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.

One shape.

}Notes
- HubSpot requires an `hs_timestamp` on every note; this node fills in the current time when you do not set one in `properties`.
- Attaching the note is a second call — POST the note, then PUT the v4 default association — so a note can exist unattached if the second call fails.
See Create Note run in a workflow.
In a technical demo we add the HubSpot connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
