On each record, you can review and manage the record's owner and all users with permissions to access the record. You can also view a history of owners for the record, including both HubSpot default owner properties and custom user properties.

Users must have View permissions for the selected record to view the record access panel.

  • The owner of the record will be displayed at the top of the panel. This is the user selected for the default Owner property. To change the record's owner, click Change [record] owner. You'll be brought to the property on the record where you can update the value.
  • On the Users with access tab, view which users have access to the record, including each user's team and their level of access based on CRM object user permissions (e.g., View only, View and edit).
  • To filter the users, click Teams or Access, then select teams or permissions to include users that meet that criteria in the table.
