Find Email of GitHub User
Finding a GitHub user's email can be the first step in integrating GitHub data with HubSpot. While GitHub's API provides a way to retrieve user data, it does not directly expose user emails due to privacy settings. However, there are workarounds:
- Use the GitHub API with a user's permission to access their email.
- Inspect commit history for a user's email, as commit logs often contain the author's email address. This method requires examining the patch view of a commit where the email address is included in the commit details.
- Utilize third-party tools like Nymeria or browser extensions that can help find email addresses associated with GitHub profiles.
It's important to respect privacy and use this information ethically for legitimate business purposes.
HubSpot Create Contact API
Once you have the email address of a GitHub user, the next step is to create a contact in HubSpot. HubSpot's API allows for the creation of contacts programmatically. Here are the steps to manually create a contact using HubSpot's API:
- Ensure you have an API key or access token for authentication with HubSpot.
- Use the
/crm/v3/objects/contacts
endpoint to create a new contact. You will need to send a POST request with the contact's details, including their email address, in the request body. - Include any additional information you wish to associate with the contact, such as first name, last name, or company name, in the properties of the request.
Remember to handle responses from HubSpot's API to confirm the successful creation of the contact or to troubleshoot any errors.
