About transferring GitHub Apps

The owner of a GitHub App registration can transfer ownership of the GitHub App registration to another account. If an organization has designated any app managers for an app owned by the organization, the app managers can also transfer ownership of the GitHub App registration. For more information about app managers, see Adding and removing GitHub App managers in your organization.

You can transfer apps from a user or organization to another account. You cannot transfer ownership to a team.

You can also transfer ownership of a private or internal app from a user or organization to an enterprise account that the owner belongs to. When you do this:

  • The app's visibility becomes internal if it was not previously, making it available to install in any organization in the enterprise. The app is not uninstalled from any organization.
  • The app is uninstalled from all user accounts. Because transfers are limited to private and internal apps, this will only ever be your own user account.

For more information about app visibility, see Making a GitHub App public or private.
