Migrate Connections to a New Hub
If you've created a hub and reports with the connections, then change your mind later or would like to consolidate payment on another hub, you will need to migrate your connections to the new hub.
If you do not migrate the connections but the bill is no longer being paid on the original hub, your reports will stop working.
Before You Proceed:
Migrating a Hub is a lengthy process. Most of our customers can save a lot of time by simply changing their Hub's owner or adding a billing contact.
