Reassign Contacts From Deactivated Owners

Purpose

When team members leave an organization, their HubSpot-owned contacts and companies become orphaned. Leads are not being worked, accounts are not being managed, and any automation that relies on Contact owner or Company owner routes to dead ends. This skill identifies deactivated owners, analyzes their contact portfolios, and batch-reassigns ownership via the API.

Prerequisites

• A HubSpot private app access token with crm.objects.contacts.read, crm.objects.contacts.write, crm.objects.companies.read, crm.objects.companies.write, and crm.objects.owners.read scopes
• Python 3.10+ with uv for package management
• A .env file containing HUBSPOT_ACCESS_TOKEN
• A decision from team leadership on the reassignment strategy (see Plan stage)
