My company is moving from GitHub to GitLab. The project page says that our org is bound to a GitHub organization. What are the steps to make this move seamless? Thank you.

Hey there.

Unfortunately, [organizations cannot be rebound](https://docs.sonarcloud.io/organizations/overview/#organizations-cannot-be-re-bound)

> ## Organizations cannot be re-bound
> 
> Once an organization is created on the SonarCloud side it is bound to its peer organization on the repository platform until one or the other is deleted. The SonarCloud organization cannot be re-bound to another organization.
> 
> If you are migrating projects to another organization (either on the same repository platform), you will need to create a new SonarCloud organization to bind to the new platform organization and re-import the projects you want to analyze.

That stinks as we lose all history.

Thank you,
