Moving the content to a Shared Drive is probably a better choice than changing ownership in MyDrive for any information that needs to outlive the tenure of any particular member of your organization. 

That said, if you do want/need to change the ownership, you can do that with the free, open source, command-line, indispensable GAM tool. Check out https://github.com/jay0lee/GAM/wiki, https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-XTD3/wiki, and https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-apps-manager for more details.

Hope that helps,

Ian

Hi,

Here are some useful tips..

In the Admin console - 

Under "Apps > Google Workspace > Settings for Drive and Docs > Migration Settings", you can allow user to migrate files and folders into shared drives.

Under "Apps > Google Workspace > Settings for Drive and Docs > Transfer ownership" you can specify source and destination users for transferring the ownership.

Hope you find it useful.

Several ways to transfer Google Drive data from one Google Workspace account to another Google Workspace account are available  : 

  1. Google Drive Migration Tool: Google provides a free Google Drive Migration Tool that allows administrators to migrate data from one Google Workspace account to another. This tool can be accessed from the Admin Console and it can transfer Google Drive files and folders, as well as Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms.

  2. Third-Party Migration Tools: There are several third-party migration tools available that can help you transfer Google Drive data between Google Workspace accounts. Some popular options include Gs Richcopy 360, Cloudsfer, Mover, and MultCloud. These tools offer more features and customization options than the Google-provided migration tool, but they may come at a cost.

  3. Manual Download/Upload: You can download the files from the source Google Workspace account and then upload them to the destination Google Workspace account. This method is time-consuming, especially if you have a large amount of data, but it can be useful if you want to transfer only a specific set of files.

  4. Shared Folder: You can create a shared folder in the source Google Workspace account and share it with the destination Google Workspace account. Then, you can move the files you want to transfer to the shared folder. The destination Google Workspace account can access the shared folder and download the files.

To migrate Google Drive data from one Google Workspace account to another, consider using the Google Drive Migration tool. This software facilitates swift tenant-to-tenant migration. A demo version is available, allowing users to migrate up to 5 items per folder.
