Loop - What does it mean that a workspace has no owner

Dear commuity!

I was reading that once a workspace creator would leave the company, the workspace will be owner-less and the IT would not be able to add a new one.

What does this mean in theory - that the workspace would still be operable and people could still be added? Or what does the owner has what the other do not have?

thank you!

    Dear Enno G.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community, we are glad to assist you.

    We understand that you are trying to inquire about Loop workspace with no owner.

    It is important to explain that no owner means that this workspace will lose editing privileges. Administrators will not be able to delete from this workspace, nor will they be able to assign members to the no owner workspace.

    Equivalently, the no-owner workspace exists independently and cannot be changed in any subsequent way.

    You can refer to this link for more information:

    We hope that the above information has been helpful to you. Please feel free to reply if you need further assistance.

    Thank you for your understanding and patience and I look forward to hearing from you.

    Best Regard

    Hey Tracy,

    thank you for the update! Is there a feature planned in the future to prevent this?

    Or would there be a work-around to solve this issue?

    Otherwise I would suggest our company to generate a new email address for each project, which then would be the workspace owner.

    Kind regards!

    Dear Enno G.

    Thank you for your response.

    Unfortunately, there is currently no solution for this situation. As Microsoft Community is primarily a technical community, the Microsoft development team does not pay attention to this forum. Therefore, we suggest that you post a question or idea (with as much detail as possible, including images, copying videos, etc., if convenient) on **** a special feedback platformfor this situation, where a dedicated developer will be watching and commenting on your feedback.

    Loop · Community (microsoft.com)

    After sending your feedback, you can share the feedback link in this forum so that other users with similar questions, including me, can vote for your feedback, and the more votes you get, the more likely you are to get a developer!

    Thank you for your observations and suggestions, your ideas and suggestions are vital to improving Microsoft products.

    Best Regard
