# spaces.transfer_ownership Transfer ownership of a space Transfers an existing space to another active human or service principal. The current space owner, the GoodMem instance owner, or an instance administrator may transfer it; a space-scoped administrator cannot. Only owner and update-audit fields change. Memories, embedder associations, grants, and role assignments remain unchanged. This operation is not idempotent under response semantics: after an unknown outcome, read the space before retrying. Args: id (str): UUID of the existing space to transfer request (TransferOwnershipRequest | dict): The request payload. Accepts a TransferOwnershipRequest instance or a plain dict with the same fields. Returns: TransferSpaceOwnershipResponse ```python spaces.transfer_ownership(*, id: 'str', request: 'TransferOwnershipRequest | dict') -> 'TransferSpaceOwnershipResponse' ``` [spaces](../spaces.md) · [Python](../../python.md) Related types — open only those used by your request: - [TransferOwnershipRequest](../models/TransferOwnershipRequest.md)
