Changing ownership of pipelines

We have created a service account to manage pipelines (as suggested by QB), which seems to be good way to handle multiple developers working on our account.  However, we have dozens of pipelines that I need to change ownership of in order to take advantage.    

I'm really hoping someone has a better solution than what QB is suggesting because this is wild for changing ownership of an existing pipeline.

  • There is no button to transfer ownership, but I certainly wish there was. I think it's not quite as terrible as it seems. A suggestion is to download the app from the exchange called the YAML converter.

    In your because you were simply changing the ownership and not any of the table references, all you need to do is to change the setting for the setting lovingly called the "Slug".

    So you should be able to use the YAML converter to change the slug simply just copy paste to your clipboard and import the new pipeline.  

    I have not used that in a long time so feel free to post back with your success or obstacle

      Thanks Mark, we will give it a go.  

      I have a feeling that this is one of those things where there is going to be an update to address this the week after we get done converting them all.

        Well,  selfishly, I hope that's true (to make my future Pipeline Ownership transfers easy for me!)
