There's no native integration. To connect them, you will need a middleware tool like Make or n8n.
Yes. This integration typically uses OAuth 2.0, meaning you grant permission via a secure login window. You do not need to share your raw password, and you can revoke access at any time from your PayPal security settings.
This is typically a one-way sync: PayPal → HubSpot. Changes in HubSpot do not sync back to PayPal.
Usually, no. Most native integrations are "forward-looking," meaning they only sync data created or updated *after* you activate the connection. To move historical data, you will likely need to perform a one-time CSV export/import manually.
Native integration is limited to standard fields. For custom field mapping, use an automation tool.
