HubSpot's November 2025 Updates: Everything You Need to Know About Breeze AI, Data Hub, and Smart CRM

Connecting HubSpot to Salesforce creates a unified CRM ecosystem that aligns marketing and sales teams, eliminates data silos, and enables closed-loop reporting. While the technical connection takes minutes, successful integration requires strategic planning, proper configuration, and ongoing optimization.

If you're struggling with manual processes that don't scale, fragmented data that undermines personalization, or the constant pressure to do more with less, these updates are designed specifically for you.

Let's dive into what's new, what's changing, and what you need to do right now.

What's Inside This Guide

• New Features: Breeze AI Suite, Data Hub, and Smart CRM innovations
• Enhancements: Marketing, sales, service, and developer improvements
• Critical Deprecations: API migrations and mandatory changes you can't ignore

🚀 The Big Three: Game-Changing New Features

1. Breeze AI Suite: Your New Autonomous Workforce

Who Gets Access: Professional+ plans (Customer Agent), Enterprise+ for full suite

Remember when AI was just a buzzword? Those days are over. HubSpot has consolidated its artificial intelligence capabilities under one unified brand: Breeze. This is "agentic AI"—autonomous agents that work alongside your teams to handle repetitive tasks, accelerate research, and drive personalized customer engagement.

Meet Your New AI Colleagues

Breeze Agents are specialized AI workers that handle specific jobs:

• Data Agent: Analyzes internal and external data to answer complex business questions
• 18+ Additional Beta Agents: Expanding capabilities across the entire customer lifecycle

Breeze Assistant is your AI copilot that:

• Works inside HubSpot AND external tools (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack)
• Remembers context from past interactions for personalized support
• Conducts research and prepares meeting agendas from your CRM data
• Summarizes email threads and surfaces key insights

Breeze Studio & Marketplace gives you:

DEADLINE: November 1, 2025 | CRITICALITY: HIGH

The v1 Marketing Email API reached end-of-life on November 1, 2025. All requests to v1 endpoints will fail with HTTP 404 errors. This is a hard cutoff.

What You Must Do

Step 1: Identify v1 Usage

# Search codebase for v1 endpoint references
grep -r "email/public/v1" ./src/
grep -r "/email/v1" ./src/

Step 2: Migrate to v3

Before (v1):

POST /email/public/v1/emails
{
  "name": "November Newsletter",
  "subject": "Updates from our team"
}

After (v3):

POST /marketing/v3/emails
{
  "name": "November Newsletter",
  "subject": "Updates from our team",
  "emailType": "BATCH_EMAIL",
  "subscriptionId": 12345,
  "language": "en-us"
}

Step 3: Test in sandbox
Step 4: Deploy to production

Risk if Ignored: Complete failure of automated email campaigns, broken marketing automation workflows, revenue impact from missed promotional emails.

2. Legacy Call-to-Action (CTA) Editor Sunset

DEADLINE: November 30, 2025 | CRITICALITY: MEDIUM

• Proactively recreate mission-critical CTAs in new editor
• Test functionality before deadline

3. Clearbit Free Logo API Sunset

DEADLINE: December 8, 2025 | CRITICALITY: LOW-MEDIUM
