If I understood your question correctly you want to set an owner for every contact you create or update through the API.

This should be possible using the **hubspot\_owner\_id** in your data object. You need to pass the ID of the owner, which you can find by using the [Owner API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/owners) or by getting the User ID from the HubSpot portal by visiting the ‘User settings’ and clicking on a user: [https://app.hubspot.com/settings/\](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/%5C)/users/editUser/\<User ID\>
