Transfer ownership of FP settings for a Google Form

If you need to switch accounts or assign a new owner for a Google Form that uses Form Publisher, you can transfer ownership of the Form Publisher settings to another Google account. This allows the new user to manage and configure settings like templates, destination folders, and response spreadsheets.

Only one user at a time can own and manage the Form Publisher settings for a Google Form.

warning

If you have multiple Google Forms for which you want to transfer Form Publisher ownership, you must repeat this process for each form individually. Ownership is transferred on a per-form basis, and updating one form will not affect others.
If you no longer have access to the previous owner's Google account, submit a support request so we can assist you.

Prerequisites

Share all documents and folders listed below with the new Google account. Configure the new Google account to be an Editor.
- Template document (Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides)
- Destination folder
- Responses spreadsheet
- Google Form (add the new account as a collaborator)
As a best practice, transfer the ownership for the documents and folders to the new Google account.
info You can only transfer ownership of documents and folders to someone from your organization.

Disable Form Publisher from the current owner's account

After you share all documents and folders with the new Google account, you must now disable Form Publisher on the Google form from the current owner's account.
