Enhancement

Ability to change the name in the URL of an organization.

This was mentioned by @mattsbaber. Matt, if workflow/understand is incorrect please clarify.

Currently the workflow to change the name/URL of an ArcGIS Online organization is to copy an org to a different org with the desired name. Use case for this is for organizations that are merged/bought up by a larger organization. So rather than using the previous name in the URL, the users would like the ability to change the URL without having to copy and transfer all their services, maps, and apps to a different organization.

@clareprice so you want another org (site A) to take ownership of a service from site B?

@clareprice - have you taken a look at this: https://github.com/Esri/ago-admin-wiki/wiki/Inviting-public-accounts-into-organizations

@achapkowski The workflow would more be able to change the actual org url (highlight below) image

Similar to the functionality of this: https://pholleran.github.io/agoAdminTools/

@clareprice this can be done by calling the update() on the Portal class to change the site's https://github.com/pholleran/agoAdminTools/blob/master/js/portal.js#L81 shows what they are doing.

For the URL updates, you just need to call updateItem and update the service to the new url: https://github.com/pholleran/agoAdminTools/blob/master/js/portal.js#L208
