Hi guys
I saw in Zapier 2 options to select from my contact property.
1. id
2. hs_object_id
Since both is the same number who knows the difference of both data fields for a contact?
Thanks
Bjorn

Hey @Bmacuser,
I checked this with the internal team and we would suggest using the ID field.
This is because, hs_* field is something internal for Hubspot and there might be a possibility that it changed without any notice. Hence, using the ID field guarantee expected behavior.

Sorry to bump this up again, but can you reconfirm this is still the case? I'm doing custom integration via API and going through field customizations to get proper identifiers. There, "Contact ID" identifier is specified as "hs_object_id". There is no other ID to be found. Also, there is hs_languaage. It doesn't make much sense that those fields can change in future. It would break all API integrations.
Or am I getting something wrong.

Thanks Wendy for your feedback. I have updated all my zaps to the ID only.
Have a great day
