Transfer Ownership If Member Leaves
Hi there,
I've searched for a solution, but I don't see one. I know that the course owner in Rise can transfer the course ownership to another team member. I am the coordinator of our team. What happens if a team member (course owner) leaves, and we need to transfer ownership of that course to someone else? How do we do that? Our "admin" says that's not a function the admin can perform.
Thanks for any help!

Hi Amy and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
Thanks for reaching out! There isn't a way to access another user's Rise courses, but I can see how it would be valuable in cases like this where a user is no longer part of the team. We do have this submitted as a feature and we're tracking requests, so I've added this conversation so that we can update you when we can as well.
In the meantime, you can access Rise courses for a user that's no longer on your team with some help from your IT staff. Here's how:
1) Ask your IT staff to temporarily forward the user's email address to you or to grant you temporary access to their email account. You'll need this to complete step 3 below.
2) Add the email address back to your Articulate 360 Teams account as a user, temporarily.
3) Reset the user's Articulate 360 password here.
4) Sign into Articulate 360 with the user's email address and new password.
5) Transfer ownership of each Rise course to another user on your team.
6) When you're done, you can remove the user from your Articulate 360 account.
To avoid this scenario going forward, we recommend asking users to transfer their Rise courses to new owners before leaving the team, if possible.
Hope that helps in the meantime.- SusanSchulte-c6Community Member
Hi there,
I'm in this predicament right now. I don't believe we subscribe to Articulate Teams - if I did could I take ownership back with out involving our IT dept?

When we transfer the ownership of a course from Staff A to Staff B, do all the comments made int the reviews published by Staff A remains? How is the transfer of ownership affected the comments and review versions in Review 360?
This situation happens when a staff member has been reassigned away from a project to another mid review process. The new owner needs to continue the review and revision process.Hi Andreas. Yes, you should see the existing comments in the Review 360 projects on the new owner's dashboard. Here's some detail about how the transferred content is handled. Let me know if you have more questions!

This really should be looked at as a feature. Our Admin should have a more admin-like proof set and capability. Is this being looked at for future releases?
I see the largest impact for Rise, but also Storyline when using Articulate teams. We have shared slides but only the individual who posts those shared slides have the ability to remove them. So if that individual leaves our team or someone else posts some random shared slides into the team slides area, only the individual that posted can remove them.
Hi Graeme,
Our team is looking into the issues around transferring Rise content if an author leaves the team or company, so we'll share updates with you as soon as we can on that!
As for the Storyline teams slides, I haven't heard a lot of discussion around that here in ELH. Since we recommend the .story file to be saved locally, they're always connected to the author. I can share with our Product team your need on removing Team Slides though. Hopefully, no one is posting random slides that y'all would need to have removed! 😉

Hello,
We also would like the admins to be able to transfer ownership of files. We had a member leave and it was a while before her position was filled. She did most of her course creation in Rise. Now, we have to recreate anything she did, rather than simply updating it with new information. Please keep us posted on this issue.
Thanks!

Hi, I would also like to have the updates regards to transferring content to other team members as an admin or group admin!
There was a news letter on this topic on 11th of december, stating the following: There’s goodness for Articulate 360 Teams admins coming, too. Soon, admins will be able to transfer people’s content when they leave the team, and different admins will be able to manage different groups of seats.Thanks!
