Changing the owner of a space

If you own a space, you can transfer ownership of that business space to another person.

About this task

When you create a space, you are automatically the owner of that space. If you change the ownership of that space to another person, that person becomes the owner. If you are not an viewer or editor of the space, you cannot access the space without the permission of the new owner or a superuser.

Procedure

Click Actions > Edit Space Settings. The Edit Settings window opens.
Beside the name of the space owner, click Change. The Change Owner window opens.
Type the name or partial name into the search field and click Search. The Search Results field displays the user names that contain the search field text anywhere in their name or ID.
Tip: If you are using spaces on an iPad and no user names are visible in the Search Results field, click the down arrow and scroll down to view the available results.
Select the new owner of the space.
Set the type of access that you will have after you transfer ownership. By default, you will not be able to edit or view the space after you have transferred ownership. This means that if you need to access the page again, you will need to contact the new owner or a superuser to give you the appropriate level of access.
Click Save. The Change Owner window closes. In the Edit Settings window, the space owner field displays the name of the new owner.
Click Save. The Edit Settings window closes.
