# Transfer ownership

### **Overview**

The **Transfer Ownership** feature allows the current owner of a Flow to hand over full ownership to another workspace member. This is useful when responsibilities change, someone leaves the team, or a different person needs to take charge of managing a Flow.

### Who Can Transfer Ownership?

Only the owner of a Flow can transfer its ownership. Editors or other shared members do not have this option.

### How to Transfer Ownership

- Open the three-dot menu on the Flow you want to transfer and select Transfer ownership.

- Search for a workspace member by name or email, then select them as the new owner.
- Choose whether to keep access to the Flow after the transfer (enabled by default). If unchecked, you will lose all access.
- Click Continue, review the summary, and click Transfer ownership to confirm.

### What Changes After the Transfer?

- The new owner gets full control: rename, share, delete, and transfer the Flow again.
- If you kept access, you can still work with the Flow — edit, duplicate, publish, and view execution logs — but you will no longer be able to rename, share, or delete it.
- If you did not keep access, you lose all access unless the new owner shares the Flow with you later.
- All other shared members keep their current access.

#### Good to Know

- You cannot transfer ownership to yourself.
- There is no undo — if you need ownership back, the new owner must transfer it to you.
- Members with a Viewer role are not eligible and will not appear in the search results.
