can I change a google drive item's ownership through a google apps script?

Question

I am into a google apps domain and I am the the «super administrator».

I know I can do it via the google apps control panel, though I just would rather prefer to do it via a script, for the control panel way creates a new folder and link the file whose ownership is transferred both to the old and the new folder, a thing I do not like very much.

Soignani this was already asked and answered [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10796464/transfer-ownership-of-a-file-to-another-user-in-google-apps-script). — Jacobvdb, Feb 04 '13 at 17:11

Romain Vialard (one of the GAS top contributors) has created a library that handles that case (among others ;-) You can find all the informations on this page.

So @Sergeinsas you can with the library of @RomainVilard? In that case I can remove my comment above. – Jacobvdb Feb 04 '13 at 18:01
@Jacob, you don't have to, your comment was pertinent- and indeed the library allows for ownership change. – Serge insas Feb 04 '13 at 18:57
Ok, I just now saw the link to the library on the other thread. – Jacobvdb Feb 04 '13 at 19:29
The link on "all the informations on this page" returns "Page not found". – Rubén Sep 10 '16 at 21:39
