Transfer Workspace Ownership?

  • December 18, 2017

I am wrapping up engagement with a client. I created several of their Workspaces and, as such, I am listed as the Owner. The primary users at the client are Administrators.

- If they decide to delete my login, will it cause any issues with these Workspaces? Do they need to "Save As" a different file to prevent any issues?

- Is there a way to transfer ownership to one of them? Or is this not necessary?

Any info on this would be a big help, as I know number of users can become a concern.

    Dear DJ,

    Question 1 : If they decide to delete my login, will it cause any issues with these Workspaces? Do they need to "Save As" a different file to prevent any issues?

    Answer 1 : Yes. If they decide to delete your Login. All components like Work space, Segments, Bookmarks etc., created by you will vanish. They can use "Save As" but that is not the ideal solution.

    Question 2 : Is there a way to transfer ownership to one of them? Or is this not necessary?

    Answer 2 : Yes, there is a way and it is the ideal way to deal. In User Management, at top right, you can see 'Transfer'. If you use this option, you account items will be transferred to the respective Account you select. Go through : Transfer user account items

    Also, number of Uusers can become a concern, but it will be increased to certain extent without Cost. Check with your Account Manager.

    Thank You!

      Hi there,

      Is there a delay in the transfer process taking effect? I transferred projects from someone to myself an hour ago and still can only save as a copy instead of just save.

      Thanks,

      Alex
