The very first important element to identify is whether the workspace you are trying to transfer is personal or is an organization.

To see this, go to your Weglot dashboard > click on your profile icon at the top right > "Profile" > Scroll to the "Workspaces" section.

Here, you'll see your different workspaces (the default one is *email_address*'s workspace), look at the type of the workspace you want to transfer:

If your workspace is personal, click on this button to switch it to an organization:

Now that your workspace has the "Organization" type, here is what you need to do:

The giving account needs to add a new person to the Workspace as a manager. Go to User > Add member > Select "Manager" as the role and enter the new email > Save changes.

(In the meantime, the user who will receive the workspace will have an invite to accept)

Connect to your Weglot Dashboard > Click on the "Attention required" at the top right of the screen > You have one pending invitation" > Accept the invitation.

Once the invite is accepted, you can transfer the workspace to another account.
