I created the app with my current work account. The app has been distributed to the entire school community. I am leaving this district for an entirely new job and I want to make one of my colleagues the new owner of the account so that all of the links to the app that are already distributed don’t …

[image] Transfer sheets property and apps to another owner In addition to the steps below, I would change the URL for your app, copy it, then set the URL in the new app to match what it used to be in the old app. I think this should keep all of the settings. I would a…

Thank you. We have already distributed the app with the existing URL. If I change the URL then those apps stop functioning. You are correct that the app should have been built from a generic account initially. I now have a generic account to which I could transfer ownership. It seems like that is no…

Unless there’s some hidden app id where Android or IOS would not recognize that the URL is pointing to a…

What URL? If you mean the glide one yourname.glideapp.io then all you need to do is follow the steps outlined above and rename the original one to something else and name the newly created one the original name. FYI, this is probably what @Jeff_Hager said but I read his after I replied. Anyway th…
