Portal users can move through configured related-object paths from a record while remaining within the permitted portal context.

Navigate related records

  1. Open an authorized record in the customer portal.
  2. Open the related-record or association area.
  3. Choose a configured related object.
  4. Select an authorized related record.
  5. Continue into a deeper related-object level when the configured association path supports it.
  6. Use the available back or parent navigation to return to the earlier record context.

What determines access

  • The canonical Association Builder graph defines the available paths.
  • Display labels determine how relationships are presented.
  • Access labels and linked contact or account context help determine which records are reachable.
  • Object and resource permissions still apply at every level.

Troubleshooting

  • If a related object is absent, verify the association graph and display label.
  • If an expected record is missing, verify the HubSpot association and access label.
  • If a nested path stops early, confirm that the next graph edge is configured and that the role can read the target object.
