Migrating from free to Pro

[SecSupport]

Hello everyone; I am working with a team who have started using the free version of Looker Studio, they have set up some reports and dashboards using their free @gmail.com accounts. We now want to bring this project in to the organization by creating a new Google Workspace account and purchasing a Looker Studio Pro subscription.

Would it be possible for us to migrate everything that has already been created using free Looker Studio and Google accounts into the Workspace and Pro environment?

I found the below article that implicitly states that transfer of ownership from a standard Google account can only go to another standard Google account, but I am hoping there may be some kind of work around so we don't have to start again. Data is being imported manually and will continue to be, so I have no concerns around data sources. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It should be possible, I think - migrating content from the free version of Studio to LSP is covered in this document.

@SecSupport regarding to ownership transfer of Looker Studio reports the answer is ...NO.
You cannot transfer ownership from private gmail to workspace domain.
However, you can easily add this account as an editor and copy the asset with workspace account.
The disadvantage is all dashboards will have new URLS.

I think this is going to be the way to go, thank you very much!
