What this feature is and why it matters

The Move Project feature allows you to move an entire project from one workspace to another.

When a project is moved, everything moves with it, including:

  • Forms and pages

  • Submissions and responses

  • Logic and workflows

  • User directories

  • Connected dashboards

This is especially valuable when:

  • A project is created in the wrong workspace by mistake

  • Your company manages multiple organizations or departments

  • A test project is ready to move into a production workspace

  • Teams are being restructured and projects need reorganization

Instead of recreating forms or copying data manually, you can move the project safely in a few clicks.

Step 1: Open the project menu

  • Go to your Homepage

  • Find the project you want to move

  • Click the three dot menu on the project card

Step 2: Select Move

  • From the dropdown menu, select Move

Step 3: Choose destination settings

In the popup modal, choose:

  • Workspace:
    Select the workspace you want to move the project to.

  • Folder:
    Select the folder inside the destination workspace.
    If no folder is selected, the project will be placed on the home page of the destination workspace.

All forms, responses, logic, dashboards, and user directories are transferred with the project.

What happens after a project is moved

After moving a project:

  • All existing submissions remain available

  • Logic rules and workflows continue to work

  • Dashboards stay connected to the project

  • User access follows the destination workspace rules

No additional setup is required, but it is recommended to review access permissions in the new workspace.
