Assigned owner when creating opportunities

Hi,
I tried to create opportunities through API with user_id attribute, but it seems the system ignored the user_id, the owner is always the same, and I can only change the owner when I update the existing opportunities. Is there something I miss? Here’s is the payload, thanks.
{
“opportunity_title”: “Test2”,
“contact”: {
“id”: 1
},
“stage”: {
“id”: 1
},
“user”: {
“id”: 24
}
}

Hi @Min_Liu, you’re correct that currently you are unable to set the user_id on opportunity creation since it is always set to the logged in user’s id. I don’t see why we couldn’t first take the provided user_id and fall back to the logged in user id so I will work with our product manager to get that work prioritized.

@Min_Liu welcome to the club

Hi Jared,

Yes I think that’s probably the solution for now, thanks a lot.
