Troubleshooting & Common Pitfalls

10. Troubleshooting & Common Pitfalls

Issue / Symptom

Possible Cause

Solution

Unable to Connect to HubSpot

Invalid API Key / OAuth credentials

Regenerate your key or re-authenticate with the correct HubSpot account.

No HubSpot Data Appearing on Jira Issues

Permissions not granted or user not in correct group/role

Update view permissions in the app settings so relevant teams can see the data.

Data Sync Delays

Rate limiting or large data sets

Check HubSpot’s API usage limits. Ensure no mass updates are happening at the same time.

Field Mismatch / Errors

Trying to sync incompatible data types (e.g., text to dropdown)

Update field mapping to compatible types (string to string, dropdown to single select).

Multiple Contacts Not Showing

Settings only allow for a single contact match

Adjust your configuration to display multiple contacts (if supported by your version).

Jira Issues Not Updating in HubSpot

Sync direction is set to one-way (HubSpot → Jira)

Enable two-way sync for the relevant fields/status updates.

Pro Tip: If you see error messages in Jira logs or the admin console, screenshot them and search the documentation or contact support with the exact wording. This can speed up resolution.

12. Performance & Scalability Considerations

  • Handling Large Data Volumes: If you have thousands of contacts or deals, be aware of API rate limits. Consider incremental syncing or focusing only on key properties to avoid performance bottlenecks.

  • Monitoring: Keep an eye on sync logs (if available) to identify spikes in calls or potential bottlenecks.

  • Jira Data Center: For enterprise-scale usage, ensure each node in your Data Center deployment has the app installed and configured consistently.
