I am deleting an Apple ID that I have had or years because of issues that Apple engineering said my ID has become corrupt somehow. I want to transfer my health and fitness data to that new Apple ID. Can that be done?
No. Apple does not own your data. Your data is tied to the Apple ID. Same with purchases, histories, etc. all tied to the Apple ID. None of that data can be moved to a new Apple ID.
I’m not sure what kind of advice you received but I’ve never heard of an Apple ID becoming “corrupt.” You can change your Apple ID (Change your Apple ID - Apple Support) to maintain your data tied to your account. if Apple engineering has actually determined that there is an issue with your account perhaps they have a solution that maintains your account data

No. All data belongs to the Apple ID
So my health and fitness data belongs to Apple not me.
Well, I am happy to share what came back from Apple engineering if you’re a non-believer. Additionally if I can’t freely move my health data then I don’t own it.
I have it in writing that I have to except some issues or I can change my ID and start over. After we tested a new test ID and the issues went away.
That’s a choice that you will need to make.
Were you able to make it?
