I have a questions:  On ArcGIS Online Is it an easier way to transfer ALL Content from a member to another member in my organization?  instead of clicking in each folder?  

The Original GIS member left the company and I need to transfer all content to another member?  as an Administrator it is kind of "crazy"  that we do not have a "Select All" .......to transfer Ownership.

The response from ESRI Tech support was.......no other choices  ???

Appreciate any advice!

Thank you,

Jack

Thanks for the feedback Jack Orenstein

Currently it isn't possible to select all, and change content owner, especially if there is a lot of content. 

This is something that can be automated through the Rest API or ArcGIS API for Python

move_existing_user_content_to_a_new_user | ArcGIS for Developers 

User content: ArcGIS REST API 

Reassign Item: ArcGIS REST API 

I understand why you would want this functionality avaialable when managing members content. Can you log an idea on ArcGIS Ideas so others can contribute to this idea? When an employee leaves your organization, does someone sort through their content to decide what to keep and what to delete or is all content transferred regardless of what it is? It would be helpful to understand what your off-boarding process is.

Thanks,
