#HubSpot data in your pipelines, not locked in your #CRM. You can loop through paginated #REST responses in Apache Hop. Or use the Putki #HubSpot Input plugin and make it just another transform. 👉 putki.io/putki/hubspot-input @hop.apache.org @know.bi #apachehop #putki

The EU‘s fight over the ‚combustion engine ban‘ was a waste of the public‘s attention. Performative politics. By 2035, collectors with special licenses may still want one, if they can pay for the fuel and find some last gas station. History doesn‘t proceed in a linear fashion.
