There are various reusable objects within Designer Cloud that you might own. For example: -
Flows
Plans
Macros
Connections
Imported datasets
User-defined functions
In case of organizational restructuring, or an employee leaving the team or the organization, there could be a need to transfer the ownership of their assets to another user. The administrator might also need the ability to transfer assets from one user to another in some cases. The ‘Transfer Ownership’ feature allows the administrator to make these updates for all reusable assets.
Usage
To transfer the ownership of a flow, select the Flows icon in the navigation bar to open the Flows page.
2. Select the More(…) menu on the flow that you want to transfer.
3. Select the ‘Transfer ownership’ option in the menu.
4. Enter the username of the individual to whom you wish to transfer ownership of the asset. Then, select Transfer ownership.
5. You will receive a notification about the transfer. After the transfer, the transferred flow will display in your Shared with me tab. You are a collaborator on the flow, while the user you transferred to is now the owner of the flow.
Details of the feature
You can transfer the ownership of one or more individual assets.
You cannot transfer ownership of folders.
After the transfer, the original owner retains access to the assets as a collaborator, except macros and user-defined functions, where the previous owner loses access to them after the transfer.
Asset ownership cannot be transferred between projects or workspaces.
Transferring ownership of an asset does not change any underlying permissions that may be required to access the asset.
Non-admin users can only transfer assets that they own.
Administrators can transfer all assets owned by one user to another user, which is a key step before disabling or removing the original user from the system. For more information, refer to the User Details Page.
Reference datasets cannot be transferred separately. They are transferred when the entire flow is transferred.
Bulk Transfer
Admin users can transfer all of the assets owned by one user to another user. For more information, review the User Details Page.
Non-admin users can transfer all of their owned assets through the API.
Check out the API Reference documentation to use API for the transfer of assets.
