Run once per itemOff (default): the node runs once for the whole input. On: if it receives several items (e.g. from Split Out), it runs once PER item, and {{ $json }} is that one item each time. This is how you work through a file list entry by entry.Standard
If one item fails"Skip" writes an `error` field for the failed item and keeps processing the rest, instead of losing the whole run to a single unreadable file.Standard
Pause between items (milliseconds)Wait before every run except the first. 1000 = 1 second per item. Useful when the other side would otherwise throttle you. Maximum 300000 (5 minutes).Standard

Test-run example

{
  "input": "value"
}

Access and security

The node works with your own connected HubSpot account. It only sees and changes what this account is allowed to. Check the permissions shown when you connect.

"Allowed actions" in the settings of your HubSpot connection under Connectors also applies to this node and is checked on every run. With "Read only" or "Read and draft", only the read actions run: Search and list, Get, List properties, Get property definition. These actions need "Allow changes": Create, Update, Delete.

Keys and credentials belong in Workflow Secrets or your connected accounts. Never paste them as plain text into workflow fields, test data or descriptions.

Troubleshooting

  • No output: inspect the latest run and confirm that the previous node returned the expected fields.
  • Empty variable: open the previous step output and use a field name from the real test data.
  • Connection rejected: reconnect the service and grant the permissions required by this step.
  • Action blocked: set "Allowed actions" of the connection under Connectors to "Allow changes", or pick a read action.
  • List processed once: enable per-item execution in advanced settings.
