Hi team 
Is there any way to change parent subfolder Google Drive from us...@domain.com to folder of us...@domain.com and make user2 as editor automatically ?

Regards

I'm not clear on the question; do you want to take a folder that user1 owns and put it inside a folder that user2 owns leaving user1 as the owner and user2 as an editor?

Send me a Meet/Zoom invitation to discuss.
