For Agents
Create, update, search, and batch-manage HubSpot discount records used on quotes and line items via /crm/v3/objects/discounts.
Use for: I need to create a 15 percent end-of-quarter promotional discount in HubSpot, Update the value of an existing discount record before a sales push, Search for all active discounts above 10 percent, Bulk-import a seasonal discount catalogue from a pricing spreadsheet
Not supported: Does not calculate quote totals, run pricing approval workflows, or process payment — use for managing reusable discount records inside HubSpot CRM only.
The HubSpot Discounts API manages discount records that can be applied to HubSpot quotes and line items, exposing single and batch CRUD plus search across /crm/v3/objects/discounts. It supports percentage and fixed-amount discounts, custom properties, and standard pagination so agents can read, create, and reconcile discount catalogues programmatically. Use it whenever quote pricing depends on reusable discount records rather than ad-hoc line-item adjustments.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Discounts, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Discounts API.
Create reusable discount records via POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts
Update discount values or labels with PATCH /crm/v3/objects/discounts/{discountId}
Search discounts by amount, type, or custom property through POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/search
Bulk-import a discount catalogue with POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/batch/create
Upsert discounts by external ID using POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/batch/upsert
Archive expired promotional discounts via DELETE /crm/v3/objects/discounts/{discountId}
Patterns agents use Discounts API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Promotional Discount Rollout
Create a set of seasonal or campaign-specific discount records once, then reference them on multiple quotes for the duration of the promotion. The batch create endpoint handles up to 100 discounts in a single request, so launching a holiday sale across regions takes one call rather than many. Agents can then search by an internal campaign property to find the right discount when generating a quote.
Batch-create five holiday discounts (10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 percent) via POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/batch/create with a campaign property set to 'holiday-2026'.
Quote-Time Discount Lookup
When generating a quote, search the discount catalogue for the best match — for example, the highest discount whose campaign matches the deal's source. The search endpoint accepts filterGroups, sorts, and paginated results so a quote generator can fetch candidates fast even with hundreds of active discounts. Apply the discount ID on the quote line item afterwards.
Search HubSpot discounts where campaign equals 'partner-2026' and active equals true, sorted by hs_value descending, returning the top result.
Discount Catalogue Hygiene
Archive promotions that are no longer valid so reps cannot accidentally apply expired discounts on new quotes. The single-record archive endpoint removes the discount from active lookups while preserving history for audit. Run a daily search filtered to expired campaigns and archive the results in one batch.
Search for discounts where end_date is before today and is_archived is false, then archive each with DELETE /crm/v3/objects/discounts/{discountId}.
Agent-Driven Discount Creation via Jentic
An AI agent reading a manager's Slack message about a one-day promotion creates the matching HubSpot discount record without an engineer touching the CRM. Through Jentic the agent searches for the create operation, loads its input schema, and executes it with the parsed promo details. The flow runs on a single Jentic credential without exposing the HubSpot key.
Use Jentic to search 'create a HubSpot discount record', load the POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts schema, and execute it with type, value, and label parsed from the Slack message.
11 endpoints — the hubspot discounts api manages discount records that can be applied to hubspot quotes and line items, exposing single and batch crud plus search across /crm/v3/objects/discounts.

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
HubSpot OAuth tokens and private app keys are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive a scoped execution token — the raw HubSpot credential is injected at call time and never enters the agent's context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g., 'create a HubSpot discount') and Jentic returns the matching /crm/v3/objects/discounts operation with its input schema, so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing HubSpot docs.
Time to first call
Direct HubSpot integration: 1-2 days for OAuth scopes and batch payload assembly. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load, execute.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Specific to using Discounts API through Jentic.
What authentication does the HubSpot Discounts API use?
Discounts accepts OAuth 2.0 access tokens (with the crm.objects.line_items or quote scopes depending on use) and HubSpot private app API keys passed in the private-app or private-app-legacy headers. Through Jentic the credential lives in the MAXsystem vault and is injected at execution time.
Can I create a percentage discount through the API?
Yes. Set the discount type to PERCENT and pass the value as a number on POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts. For fixed-amount discounts, use type FIXED and the corresponding currency value. The discount can then be applied on quotes or line items by reference.
What are the rate limits for the HubSpot Discounts API?
Discounts share HubSpot's account-wide limit — typically 100 requests per 10 seconds for OAuth apps and 190 per 10 seconds for private apps on paid tiers. Use POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/batch/create for catalogue imports since the batch counts as one request.
How do I search discounts through Jentic?
Run jentic.search('search HubSpot discount records'), load the schema for POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/search, and execute it with a filterGroups payload. Jentic returns matching discounts as structured JSON ready to be referenced on a quote.
Do I need to apply discounts to a line item separately?
Yes. The Discounts API only manages the discount records themselves. To apply one to a quote or line item, reference its ID through the Line Items or Quotes APIs — Jentic exposes those as separate operations you can chain.
Can I upsert a discount by an external ID?
Yes. POST /crm/v3/objects/discounts/batch/upsert accepts an idProperty referencing a custom unique property (for example, an internal SKU or campaign code). HubSpot inserts new discounts and updates existing ones in the same call.
