Change owner of cloud document

A member of our team is leaving. The only way we can change ownership of her files is to have her download them and share them locally. This is fine and all but it breaks all the links to the document so I have to go into the various places we share the link, like JIRA, and add new links.

I would prefer that we could just change ownership of the file to another team member.

    This causes a lot of pain when handing over projects to other designers, especially since it blocks them from updating and creating share links

    Shared ownership would be even better. We work in the same team on the same product, the product deserves to be in both our cloud root folder and not 'shared with me' only.

    Managing ownership and permissions is a basic function with Google Drive, it's past time to add it to Adobe Cloud

    This feature needs more votes! Please consider it soon.
    It is a big drawback for our team and I'm sure for any teams.

    This has been suggested for over two years, and yet Adobe seem to ignore one of the fundamental things to get this machinery to work flawless.

    Let's say I have worked at a project for a client and we only keep Cloud Documents since we arent allowed to keep it on our local machines, I have hundreds of these, now I am quitting the project and handing it over to an other designer.

    Problems that instantly come up:

    1. I cant download all the files in one go and re-upload them for the new account (neither via CC or via website or via support)
    2. I cant transfer ownership of the file, and save the links that other people rely on

    Several tickets for over two years, yet you do nothing about this, Adobe.
    Do we need to change to Figma or Sketch in order to solve basic things like this?

    That's a really important feature for Agencies, where multiple designer can work on a same document !!! At Publicis we don't use XD that much because of this limitation... Please, this is a must have for Agencies !!!!!

    This might be helpful.

    Save your XD file to your local computer, and you can open it up on a different account as a file owner.

    This is a major issue for our team. As we move through the phases from requirements, to wireframing, to design, to prototyping, the person responsible for the file shifts. We need to be able to empower the responsible party to update share links. It's a huge pain to have the original creator have to update the share link every time.

    add me to this - it's a big issues in teams that have multiple designers

  • Bhavya commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    This feature has to be there very soon, as in my org I am the only designer but owner of xd files is my boss, so everytime I cannot ask him to create links for me.
