# Create Resources Transfer Request

```http
POST /v1/installations/{installationId}/resource-transfer-requests
```

Prepares to transfer resources from the current installation to a new one. The target installation to transfer resources to will not be known until the verify & accept steps.

## Authentication

**System Authentication**: 
This authentication uses the [OpenID Connect Protocol (OIDC)](https://auth0.com/docs/authenticate/protocols/openid-connect-protocol). Vercel sends a JSON web token (JWT) signed with Vercel’s private key and verifiable using Vercel’s public [JSON Web Key Sets](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/tokens/json-web-tokens/json-web-key-sets) (JWKS) available [here](https://marketplace.vercel.com/.well-known/jwks).

System Auth OIDC token claims schema:

title: "Validate Resources Transfer Request"
description: "Vercel uses this endpoint to provide a potential target for the transfer, and to request any necessary information for prerequisite setup to support the resources in the target team upon completion of the transfer. Multiple sources/teams may verify the same transfer. Only transfers that haven't been completed can be verified.

**Important:** The installation ID in the URL is the target installation ID, not the source one."
