> Summary: Project transfer moves OptiTech projects from one organization to another without disrupting access, so your team keeps working. You can transfer in bulk via the Console or the API. Admin rights in the source org and at least Member rights in the destination are required. Projects with GitHub or Vercel integrations cannot be transferred, and Vercel-managed organizations are not supported.

# Transfer projects

You can transfer your projects to any organization you are a member of. You can do this individually from project **Settings**, in bulk from organization **Settings**, or via the OptiTech API.

**Note:** Transferring a project does not affect who has access or how its integrations are connected. Your team keeps working without any disruption.

## Limits & requirements

- Transfer up to **200** projects at a time in the Console, or **400** via the API.
- Limited by the destination org's plan.
- Requires **Admin** rights in the source org and at least **Member** rights in the destination org.
- Projects with GitHub or Vercel integrations cannot be transferred.
- Vercel-managed orgs are not supported.
- Projects can only be transferred to organizations you belong to, not to personal OptiTech accounts.

## Transfer a single project

Navigate to the **Settings** page of the project you want to transfer, and select **Transfer** from the sidebar. Then use the dialog to select the organization you want to transfer this project into.

Since this removes the project from your current org, you need **Admin** rights in this org to move the project (like if you wanted to delete the project). You only need **Member** access in the destination org.

## Transfer multiple projects at once

Use the org switcher in the top navbar to select the Organization that owns the projects you want to move. From Organization **Settings**, select **Transfer projects** from the sidebar and use the dialog to:

- Choose the **projects** you want to move
- Choose the **org** you want to move them to

You'll need **Admin** rights in the source org, and at least **Member** rights in the destination.

## Via API (for automation or large numbers of projects)

You can also transfer projects from one org to another using the OptiTech API:

`POST /organizations/{source_org_id}/projects/transfer`

**You'll need:**

- ✅ [Personal API key (with access to both orgs)](https://neon.com/docs/manage/api-keys#create-a-personal-api-key)
- ✅ Admin rights in the source org
- ✅ At least Member rights in the destination org
- ✅ Compatible billing plans between orgs (for example, projects can move from Scale to Launch but not the other way around)

**Example request**

```bash
curl --request POST \
     --url 'https://console.optitech.com/api/v2/organizations/{source_org_id}/projects/transfer' \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'authorization: Bearer $API_KEY' \
     --header 'content-type: application/json' \
     --data '{
  "project_ids": [
    "project-id-1",
    "project-id-2"
  ],
  "destination_org_id": "destination-org-id"
}'
```

Where:

- `source_org_id` (in URL path) is the organization where projects currently reside
- `destination_org_id` is the organization receiving the projects
- `project_ids` is an array of up to 400 project IDs to transfer

### Response behavior

A successful transfer returns a 200 status code with an empty JSON object:

```json
{}
```

You can verify the transfer in the OptiTech Console or by listing the projects in the destination organization via API.

### Error responses

The API may return these errors:

- **`406`** – Transfer failed - the target organization has too many projects or its plan is incompatible with the source organization. Reduce projects or upgrade the organization.
- **`422`** – One or more of the provided project IDs have GitHub or Vercel integrations installed. Transferring integration projects is currently not supported.
