I want to say as an engineer that cold calls aren't effective but I feel like it's just due to the numbers of how many calls you can make per hour.
If you can increase the number of dials like in this post it really makes more sense from a time perspective. We also know that regulations on phone calls are going nowhere anytime soon lol.
The previous limit on this endpoint was 500 associations per request and now it's 100. Essentially reducing throughput by 5x and they call it a "bug fix"
Honestly as bad as SFDC can be at least they don't continue to hurt developer experience and call it a bug fix
The biggest thing is I no longer have access to the email address where I wrote the review and I wonder if they recognized that and went and edited it since I wouldn't be checking?
Drones have changed warfare at a local tactical level. But your drones and smaller autonomous systems aren't helping if you have overwhelming firepower superiority, ie in Gaza drones haven't inflicted too much damage if you can just drop a couple thousand JDAMS and level out a territory.
We tried a mix of caching as well as hubspot webhooks, but we were still having issues with data not updating fast enough and most of the data we load has to be somewhat on demand regarding tasks/sequences and outbounding features. ie you call or email someone, a task gets moved to the next task and the user wants to see that change somewhat quickly.
> HubSpot’s developer platform is a core part of our mission to empower organizations to grow better. Our APIs are designed to enable teams of any shape or size to build robust integrations that help them customize and get the most value out of HubSpot. All HubSpot APIs are built using REST conventions and designed to have a predictable URL structure. They use many standard HTTP features, including methods (POST, GET, PUT, DELETE) and error response codes. All HubSpot API calls are made under https://api.hubapi.com and all responses return standard JSON.
I'm getting a bit more estate transfer implications in their old docs but barely
> The API is built to allow you to create a functional application or integration quickly and easily. We know from experience - these are the APIs that power the HubSpot application. The ecosystem of developers creating integrations on top of the APIs is strong and diverse, ranging from webinar providers to CRMs to social media.
Not really sure where they mention it as a state transfer service. Not to mention even if it was, their lack of support for over 50% of their workflow/sequence/queue automations products make state transfer impossible anyways even for internal teams.
definitely. There's still just such a huge bottleneck when we have 20+ users having to queue up, and they end up complaining that they don't want to wait so long for data to come back from hubspot
Fair enough and I get it, I've been there. But for a 17 year old company worth ~30 billion to have this many issues compared to both newer startups(Salesloft/Outreach) and large incumbents(Salesforce) is just unacceptable.
I'm not here saying every company is perfect, I have quite a few gripes with other services but they either:
A. Actually respond to issues and work with developers and actively help maintain their app integrations despite significantly smaller support teams(I've worked with at most 1-2 csms and an engineer or pm with most integrations but with hubspot I get routed from our app manager, to a csm to an entire engineering team and even the head of support all to just get an email that their oauth issues won't be fixed until q3 202x since developer experience isn't a priority)
or
B. Blatantly don't care but don't sell themselves to sales team that they have a great integration and great support for people building integrations. I'm at a point where I'm trying to actively push our mutual customers to anything but hubspot
It's not just their API that sucks, even simple stuff like their marketplace is horribly managed.
For shits and giggles I created an app for the marketplace and copied similar screenshots to what a competitor offered but then my application was rejected for not having proper screenshots. The app manager just responded that they had special privilege to not abide by any of the marketplace rules. Turns out they signed a pretty large deal with the competitor...
Let’s be real the majority of these people getting laid off aren’t gonna grind for 2-3 years with low odds of succeeding. Same thing that happened with Twitter layoffs and any covid layoffs.
People wanting to build stuff to their hearts desire long left or didn’t start at google in the first place
Here’s my thing. It’s kind of like calculators and computers. It’s fine to use calculators later on because once you’ve mastered basic division you don’t need to do it 40 million more times. But if you gave calculators to first graders I struggle to believe they’re gonna be learning shit lol
