Google Fabric账户管理员变更流程咨询（原管理员全部离职）

Hey there, let's break down the steps to transfer admin access for your Google Fabric account since all original admins have left. There are two main scenarios you'll need to consider:

1. If you still have a secondary admin account with access #

If there's any existing account (maybe a backup admin you forgot about) that still has admin privileges, follow these steps:

• Log into the Google Fabric console using that admin account.
• Navigate to the IAM & Admin section (you can find this in the left sidebar or top menu of the console).
• Locate the current employee you want to grant admin access to in the IAM list, then click the pencil icon next to their entry to edit permissions.
• Assign either the Owner role (full account-wide admin access) or the Fabric Admin role (limited to Fabric-specific admin controls) — pick the one that fits your needs.
• Save the changes, then go back through the IAM list to remove admin roles from all former employees who no longer need access (critical for security).

2. If all original admins are completely locked out #

If you have no existing admin accounts left to log in with, you'll need to reach out to Google's support team:

• Gather official company documentation to prove ownership of the account: this could include your business license, billing records tied to the Fabric account, domain ownership verification (if your account is linked to a company domain), or any other official paperwork that shows the account belongs to your business.
• Submit a support request through the Google Cloud support platform. In your request, clearly state that all original admins have left the company, you need to transfer admin access to a specific current employee, and attach all the ownership proof documents you prepared.
• Wait for the Google support team to review your request. Once approved, they'll guide you through the process to grant admin access to the designated employee.

Quick Tips #

• After transferring access, enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for the new admin account right away — this adds a crucial layer of security.
• Schedule regular IAM audits to clean up unused permissions and ensure only authorized employees have access.
• Don't forget to update billing contact information if your Fabric account is linked to a company billing profile, to avoid missed communications.
