# Home Settings

Home Settings is where you rename your Chirp home and, if needed, hand ownership to someone else. Only the home owner sees this option.

## Getting There

Click your avatar or name in the bottom-left corner to open the user menu. If you are the owner, **Organization settings** appears in the menu. Click it to open the settings dialog.

If you do not see this option, you are not the current owner.

The dialog contains two fields — your home's name and the current owner — along with **Save changes** and **Close** buttons.

## Renaming Your Home

Edit the **Organizations name** field in the dialog and click **Save changes**. The new name appears everywhere — in the user menu, member lists, and the Activity Log (under **Reports** > **Audit Trail**).

## Transferring Ownership

Ownership transfer is a two-step process: you initiate it, and the new owner must accept.

### Starting the Transfer

1. Open the settings dialog.
2. Click the **Organizations owner** dropdown, which lists every current member of your home.
3. Select the person you want to make the new owner. The helper text reads: *"Only one user can be Organization owner."*
4. Click **Save changes**.

Chirp sends an ownership transfer invitation to the selected person. The invitation is valid for **24 hours**. A success screen confirms with two messages and a **Got it** button to dismiss:

> *"We sent an invitation letter to the specified email."*
>
> *"Your access will be updated to Editor once the new owner logs into the platform."*

Until the new owner accepts, you remain the owner with full control.

### What Happens After Acceptance

Despite the "Editor" message shown in the dialog, your actual access is broader than the Editor label suggests. Once the new owner accepts:

* **You keep full editing access** to every section of Chirp — Dashboards, Devices, Rules, Connectors, Subscription, member management, and everything else.
* **The Activity Log** (under **Reports** > **Audit Trail**) becomes view-only for you. This is the only section where your access changes.
* **The Organization settings menu item** moves to the new owner. You will no longer see it in your user menu.
* **The new owner** gets automatic access across the home, with the Activity Log limited to view-only.

The previous owner remains a member of the home and is not removed.

### Constraints

* **Only the current owner can initiate a transfer.** No one else sees the settings dialog.
* **The target must already be a member of your home.** You cannot transfer ownership to someone who has not joined yet.
* **One active transfer at a time.** If a transfer invitation is already pending, you cannot start another until it expires or is accepted.
* **24-hour expiration.** If the new owner does not accept within 24 hours, the invitation expires and you remain the owner.
* **Always exactly one owner.** There is no co-ownership.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.chirpwireless.io/account/organization-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
