Hi

You could try this https://github.com/harsmarvania57/splunk-ko-change

But usually it’s easier and faster to do that via GUI. Just use Settings-> All objects -> Change ownership (or something like those, I can’t remember exact names).

If that doesn’t work (there are some cases when this cannot change all KOs), you should use previous script.
