Combining knowledge from separate accounts
OpenAI Developer Community
July 2, 2026
Hey @Synergy37! Welcome to the Community and thanks for sharing this. Some of this is already possible today. When joining a ChatGPT Business workspace, users can either keep their Personal workspace separate or merge their Personal workspace into Business.
To merge, switch to the Business workspace from your profile icon, then go to Settings > Data Controls > Merge data from your personal workspace, and follow the prompts. Please note that merging is permanent and the Personal workspace is deleted after migration.
For exported conversations, you can export from an eligible Personal account and upload the exported conversation file into another personal ChatGPT account as reference. Data export is not available from ChatGPT Business or Enterprise workspaces.
You can check out this article for more detailed instructions:
* Managing workspace lifecycle and migration in ChatGPT Business
* Transfer exported conversations between ChatGPT accounts
* Exporting your ChatGPT history and data
That said, your broader request around a more flexible owner-level experience, including more granular controls over what stays private versus what becomes part of the company workspace, is helpful feedback. I can’t share a timeline right now, but I’ll pass this along internally.
