Importing contacts by contact id not email

I was digging https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/imports import documentation, but there is no information about the possibility of importing contact by its hs_object_id, not email.

 

Is it even possible to use HUBSPOT_ALTERNATE_ID for hubspot unique contact id?

Importing contacts by contact id not email

@k0n0pka 

If you scroll down to the "Creating your own unique identifiers" on this page,

you will see this:

Contacts cannot have custom defined idProperties, you can use email as the idProperty parameter for calls to the contacts API.

Importing contacts by contact id not email

@dennisedson thanks for the reply. By custom-defined idProperties I was not thinking about the internal user id, but the hubspot id which is assigned to every contact object.

 

And I just want to import contacts by providing HUBSPOT_ID not EMAIL, is it even possible?
