Reassign inspection ownership

Learn how to reassign the ownership of your inspections via the web app.

What is template and inspection ownership?

Whenever a SafetyCulture user creates a template or inspection, that user becomes the owner. By default, the owner has full access to a template or inspection. In relation to ownership, we understand that organization structures can constantly shift and that from time to time, templates and inspections may also need to be reassigned when changes occur.

Template and inspection ownership can only be reassigned by the owner to other users in the same organization.
