Is it possible to get the name and/or e-mail instead of the internal value of the hubspot\_owner\_id with an API? I need the responsible employee for a deal as name or e-mail just as you can see them in the deal view with the deal owner property. If I select HubSpot-User as field type within a deal property I only get the internal value.

Hey @nils1,

When looking to retrieve more information of a hubspot owner id, you can explore the option of using the [Owners API](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/owners/owners_overview).

While we wouldn’t be able to return name/email of the owner instead of internal value, you can store the respective owner details using the [Owners API](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/owners/owners_overview) and match each owner ID to it’s details.
