Migrate universal forwarding agent from one account to another

Hi all,

If I manage two separate Splunk cloud accounts and have an UF agent configured to talk to the first, how can I reconfigure it to talks second please?

Second part of the question, Is it possible for a single agent to send data to both accounts at the same time without having to install a second agent?

Thank you verymuch in advance for your help

Download the Universal Forwarder app from the second cloud account and install it on the UF.

Second, download the Universal Forwarder app from BOTH cloud accounts, merge them manually, then install them on the UFs.  Merging the apps involves combining the two outputs.conf files.
