If there are instances that you need to transfer the ownership of the Pod, you can do that by clicking the cog ⚙️ icon next to your awesome picture on the upper right, and then selecting Change Pod Owner.

Click on the drop-down menu and choose the new owner of your Pod from your team. Hit Change Pod Owner.

In doing so, all new notifications from this Pod goes to the new Pod owner.


Pods from a Deleted User

Scenario: Your teammate is leaving so you need to delete his account. What happens to the Pods under your mate's account?

Firstly, there are 3 types of accounts in trumpet 🎺.

  1. Owner - there can only be one owner in one team/company. You can see this from your Home page, on the side, under Settings > Users and Teams.

  2. Admin - can be the same person as the Owner, or assigned. They can do these:

    • Invite users to join the company

    • Update a user in the teams list and assign or edit their roles

    • Delete a user from the teams list

    • Manage the account’s subscription - upgrade, downgrade or cancel

    • Create and update teams

  3. User - uhh... crewmates? :)

All the Pods from that deleted account get automatically assigned to the account Owner. The user gets deleted, the Pods do not.

How do I transfer Account Ownership to another User?

As the Account Owner, go to Settings and then Users and Teams. If you hover your mouse over the row of a User, click on the three dots that appear and edit a User’s permissions, you will see a tick box to transfer ownership to that user.

This will only appear for Account Owners.
