Archive (delete) a CRM object
AI agents call crm_archive_object to permanently remove resources in HubSpot MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool explicitly performs an archive/delete operation on CRM objects. In HubSpot, archiving a CRM object removes it from active use and is effectively a deletion — consistent with the 'calls_archive' sibling tools which follow the same pattern. This is irreversible or difficult to reverse, making it Destructive with high severity since CRM data (contacts, deals, companies) is business-critical.
