Transferring files from one Google Drive to another in a different organisation

The easiest way to do this is to use Google Transfer, which is designed just for this purpose.  Google Transfer copies files from your Drive to another Google account. There are a few caveats::
  • Google Photos, Forms, Sites or My Maps are not transferred
  • Only copies of files you own or you have added to your My Drive will be copied; files in your Shared with me will not be copied
  • Your destination Google account must have enough storage space. (If you are transferring to a C2k Account you have unlimited space but may need to buy additional storage if transferring to a personal Google account.)
  • Team Drives are not supported
  • Content will be copied to a folder labelled with the original account name and the date the process was initiated.
