Create labeled v4 associations between two custom objects in HubSpot

Verified steps

  1. Define the association label by sending POST /crm/v4/associations/{fromObjectType}/{toObjectType}/labels with a label name and optional inverse label name in the request body
  2. Note the returned typeId values for the label and its inverse; you will need these to create labeled associations between records
  3. To associate two specific records, send POST /crm/v4/objects/{fromObjectType}/{fromObjectId}/associations/{toObjectType}/{toObjectId} with an array of association type objects referencing the typeId
  4. Do not use PUT at the /labels path to create a label; PUT at that path updates or associates two specific records, not the label definition
  5. Confirm the association by fetching GET /crm/v4/objects/{fromObjectType}/{fromObjectId}/associations/{toObjectType} and verifying the label appears in the results
  6. Use batch endpoints (POST /crm/v4/associations/{fromObjectType}/{toObjectType}/batch/create) to associate many record pairs efficiently
