Hello,

I tried to contact Support directly for assistance here, but every time I do an error appears.

I’m leaving the Team and wish to transfer ownership to another Admin/user of the Team. I’ve tried following the instructions on this page: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039481134-Transfer-ownership-of-a-team

When I open the Team in Figma, I only see “People” instead of “Members” and when I select the user’s profile, I’m only able to revoke or add their admin permissions, not transfer the ownership permissions to their account. Please note that I am the current owner of this team.

Can the documentation be updated and the feature be added correctly?

Kind Regards,
Gonzalo

I can do it.

Right click on the file, in the dashboard or client folder > share > click into the collaborators > click on someone > owner

@Luke-Itineris the OP wants to transfer ownership of a Team, not just a file.

It looks like this might be able to be done within the Admin area, under Content and the Teams tab.

Use the … more menu and there is an option to Transfer the Team. That does look to be transferring ownership to a different account (ie. a separate company) but at least there is a link to the help pages from that process so you can dig a bit deeper and see if that helps.

Hey Everyone,

There were some UI elements that weren’t loading for some reason when I attempted this yesterday. I was able to click the button that lead me to transfer ownership to another team member. Thanks for your help.
