How do I change the email on my account?

You can’t change the email address on an existing account. It’s tied to the Google or Microsoft account you used to create it. To sign in with a different email, invite that address to your workspace and accept the invitation using its Google or Microsoft account.
  1. While signed in to your current account, go to Settings > Members and click Invite Member. If your current account has the Member role, ask an Admin or Owner to send the invitation.
  2. Enter your new email address, choose Admin or Member, and send the invitation.
  3. Open the invitation sent to your new email address. Sign in with the Google or Microsoft account that matches that exact address and accept the invitation. You can use a private or incognito window to avoid signing in with your old account.
Your new email now has its own account with access to the same workspace. See Managing team members for invitation steps, role permissions, and plan availability. If your old account is the Owner: After accepting the invitation, sign back in to your old account and transfer ownership to the new account from Settings > Members. To remove access for your old email: Once your new account has access and any ownership transfer is complete, an Admin or Owner can remove the old account from the team. If your new account is an Admin or Owner, sign in with it to remove the old account. You can’t remove yourself or remove the current Owner.
