Transfer Youtube Channel from GSuite to Microsoft 365 account
miles-t Yeah, I've still not got a clear response from Google or Microsoft. Seems very strange that such an issue is not addressed till now. How do brands manage this - we don't want to start from scratch nor do we want to lose existing data nor have to maintain multiple domains and incur costs.
What I understood from some lengthy GSuite Support discussions is that -
- For Youtube, we gotta first create a Brand Account and transfer our existing Youtube channel to the Brand account which can be managed by multiple email addresses (non Gmail)
- For Ads and Analytics, apparently we still need a Google account. Not sure
This is very strange. We've switched to M365 6 months now and I'm still paying for GSuite because I still don't have a clear solution.

I already answered your question,
you need to always plan beforehand for these things, YouTube (Google) and Microsoft are 2 different companies.
for ads and analytics your data is handled by Google, can't bring anything over to Microsoft.
Yes, I said the same thing above, use Microsoft Email and add it to your Google account or make a new one and transfer it.
by the way, this is a community forum, not the official support method.
