Transfer app ownership between different workspaces

Hello everyone!

We have a situation where an app is in a core appsheet account within a workspace where the app owner is, for example, “owner1@workspace1.com”.

We would like to transfer ownership or somehow copy this application to another owner in a different workspace, for example, “owner2@workspace2.com”.

I’ve tried several methods but haven’t been able to.

Is it possible to transfer ownership or copy applications between different workspaces?

Thank you!!

Hello @Eduardo_Zanette,

Absolutely! You have two main ways to handle this: you can either transfer the ownership of the original app or simply create a copy in the new workspace.

To transfer the ownership, you can use the editor or Admin console. Making a copy gives the new owner a fresh duplicate of the data and settings.

Something to keep in mind though: if you’re moving between personal and Google Workspace accounts, you’ll likely need to re-link your data sources and file dependencies to ensure everything syncs up correctly.

I hope this helps!

Thank you @Jose_Arteaga ,

However, in my case, I want to transfer a workspace with AppSheet Core to another workspace, also with AppSheet Core. When I try to share an application with an external user so that they can later request a transfer of ownership, this error occurs.

Thank you for yout attention!

I understand… according to the documentation: "If you receive a Workspace AppSheet Core security violation error, then you may be using a feature that is not allowed by policy, as described in Control access to AppSheet.

To address this issue, remove the disabled features from your apps or contact your Workspace administrator for assistance with turning off the AppSheet Core Security setting."

At this point my suggestion is to contact support following the steps below:

  1. Go to Appsheet help

  2. Scroll down to the bottom, you will find a box with the following text

Hi!

After researching, I disabled the appsheet security in the workspace admin console; it’s possible to share applications with external users.
