Steps
Create a HubDB table in HubSpot with the required columns, setting each column's type (text, number, option, foreign ID, etc.) and noting the table ID
Publish the table to make it accessible to the live site and to the HubDB public API
GET rows from the table using the HubDB API endpoint with optional query parameters for filtering by column value, sorting, and pagination
Add or update rows by POSTing or PATCHing to the rows endpoint with a values object keyed by column name, then publish the draft version of the table to push changes live
Use the table's foreign ID columns to reference rows in other HubDB tables and resolve the related row data via the API response's childTableId fields
Consume the HubDB API from HubL templates on CMS pages using the hubdb_table_rows() function to render dynamic content without a separate backend
Known gotchas
HubDB changes made via the API create a draft; the live table is not updated until an explicit publish API call is made — reads against the live endpoint will return stale data until published
The HubDB public API (accessible without authentication) returns only published rows; use the authenticated API to read draft rows during content preview workflows
HubDB option-type columns store values as numeric option IDs in the API response; resolve option labels by cross-referencing the column's options metadata
