Webhooks: Getting notified of contact owner change

[johncongdon]

How do we get notified in our webhooks if the owner of a contact is changed within HubSpot?

Or what's the appropriate way to get these changes?  Ideally I'd prefer not to poll the api.

Hey @johncongdon,

When looking to subscribe to contact owner change on HubSpot Webhooks, you can use the following event subscription:

hubspot_owner_id

Could you use this to create an automated report that informs a contact owner when their contact was changed?  We have an issue where we have several offices but no territories.  So sometimes the leaders at other offices, change owners and with thousands of contacts, it is nearly impossible to track.  I've been told it is currently impossible but in a past life, we used to use events like this to create these reports.

OMG: Thank YOU!

I made a huge assumption that I could only access the set list of properties in the drop down or "Custom fields".
