With the My Business Account Management API, you can transfer locations to
different accounts or location groups. Follow the instructions in this
documentation to learn how.
Get started
The following items are required to transfer locations:
Source account: The source account is the account that's an owner of the
location. This account can be a personal account or a location group. After
the transfer is complete the source account no longer has access to the
location. Destination account: The destination account is the account that the
location should be transferred to. This account can be a personal account
or a location group. After the transfer is complete, the destination account
is the primary owner of the location. OAuth2 refresh/access tokens: The OAuth2 refresh/access tokens
for the source and destination accounts are needed for each account in order
to call the API.
Transfer Locations
To transfer locations, complete the following steps:
If you're not an owner of the location, you must become one. Use the
current business owner’s OAuth credentials to call
account.admins.create
and invite a user to own the listing. Then, use the invited user’s OAuth
credentials to call accounts.invitations.list to obtain the invitation id. Call
accounts.invitations.accept
to accept this invitation.
Use the intended destination account’s OAuth credentials to call
accounts.list. Then, find
the account ID in the list that you want to transfer the location to. The admin ID in the response to the account.admins.create call or the accounts.invitations.list call in step 1 can also be used as the account ID. This account ID can refer to a personal account or a location group.
Use the account ID that you retrieved in step 2 as the destination account.
This is the destinationAccount field in the request body, which you can use to call
locations.transfer.
Use the destination account’s OAuth credentials to call
accounts.locations.list and
verify that the transferred location appears in the results. If you call the
accounts.locations.list endpoint with the source account, the transferred
location isn't included in the results.
Transfer to a location group
To transfer a location to a location group in the organization, call locations.admins.create using the merchant OAuth credentials. Use the account field in the Admin resource to pass the location group account ID along with the appropriate role. You should use the location group admin credentials to call accounts.invitations.list using the location group's account ID as the parent argument to retrieve invitations related to the location group. Find the invitation that has the correct target location, and then call accounts.invitations.accept to accept the correct invitation.
