Migrate to new account

When using a subdomain setup, you can have your subdomain as a separate zone within the same account as the parent domain or within a different account.

If you have already created a standalone subdomain zone within the same account, you can still move it to a separate account.

1. Add the subdomain to a new Cloudflare account.
2. In the original subdomain zone, export the DNS records.
3. Review the exported records, delete any unnecessary ones, and import them into the new subdomain zone.
4. Update the NS records in the parent zone to refer to the newly assigned nameservers of the child zone.
