Cosmic Domain Admin API Reference
assignVirtualMachine
Change ownership of a VM from one account to another. This API is available for Basic zones with security groups and Advanced zones with guest networks. A root administrator can reassign a VM from any account to any other account in any domain. A domain administrator can reassign a VM to any account in the same domain.
Request parameters

account | account name of the new VM owner. | true |
domainid | domain id of the new VM owner. | true |
