Default value of contact owner

[MartinMihalik]

Hello HubSpot Community,

I'm currently creating an api call to create a contact and deal externally. However I'm having a problem to set a default value of contact's owner/deal's owner. 
The idea is to set an owner to the contact/value if the owner is found. If not then keep it as "Unassigned". However I can't find what's the internal value for the "Unassigned".  Does anyone know what is the default value for it?

Thank you very much.

Hello @MartinMihalik 

We do not have any default value for the contact/deal owner property and in order to assign any owner to them we need to pass an internal value for any of the owners. If left blank it will be unassigned.

Thanks
