Transfer ownership of files or projects
When you create a file or project, Motiff will set you as the owner. You can transfer ownership of files or projects under your name.
Tips:
- Only the current owner can transfer ownership of files or projects.
- The owner can only transfer ownership to members who are already in the file or project. If the person you want to transfer to is not yet a member, you need to invite them to join the file or project first.
