Can You Transfer Workspace Ownership?
Workspace ownership in Feedspace is tied to the account that originally created the workspace. Currently, Feedspace does not offer a one-click ownership transfer between accounts. However, there are two practical paths depending on what you need.
Workaround: Grant Admin Access to the New Owner
If you want another person to have full control over the workspace for day-to-day management, you can invite them as an Admin. The Admin role has the same permissions as the workspace creator for all practical purposes, including managing team members, workspace settings, branding, automation, and billing.
Follow these steps to hand over management control:
- Go to Settings in the left sidebar of your workspace.
- Click the Team Members tab.
- Invite the new owner using their email address and assign them the Admin role. If they are already a member, change their role to Admin.
- Once they have accepted the invitation and confirmed access, the original owner can remove themselves from the workspace if they no longer need access.
This gives the new person full administrative control without requiring a formal ownership transfer on the account level.
Full Account-Level Transfer: Contact Support
If you need the workspace formally reassigned to a different Feedspace account, for example for business acquisition or account restructuring reasons, the Admin workaround above may not be sufficient. In that case, contact the Feedspace support team directly. The team can assess your situation and advise on what is possible at the account level.
Common Questions
What is the difference between the workspace owner and an Admin?
The workspace owner is the account that created the workspace. An Admin is a team member granted full administrative permissions by the owner or another Admin. For most day-to-day tasks, Admins and the workspace owner have identical capabilities. The distinction only matters at the account level, such as for billing ownership or formal workspace reassignment.
Can the original owner remove themselves after granting Admin access?
Yes. Once at least one other Admin is in place, the original owner can remove themselves from the workspace. The workspace and all its data remain intact. The remaining Admin takes over full management from that point.
Will the workspace data be affected during this process?
No. Changing roles, adding Admins, and removing members do not affect any workspace data. All review forms, collected reviews, widgets, and settings remain unchanged throughout the process.
Does a workspace Admin apply across all workspaces?
No. The Admin role is workspace-specific. A person granted Admin access in one workspace does not automatically become an Admin in any other workspace on your account. Each workspace manages its own team member roles independently.
