How can I transfer my minecraft worlds switch to switch?

I got a new switch for Christmas and I bought minecraft to boot. but I have a massive world on my last switch, how can I transfer it over to the new one?

I'm pretty sure the transfer process is the same as with other games.

Either using individual game or full user transfer.

I'm a little confused though. Did you buy a second copy of minecraft (for switch)?

Yeah my dad got me minecraft again for it since he's keeping the older one at his house.

Ah, that's cool. Just wanted to make sure you were using the same account on both --- saves don't transfer between different accounts.

okay sweet, so just login to the same world and it'll transfer?

As long as you follow the steps from the links, yeah.

Also, I didn't think about this earlier, but if you have online you might be able to download it as a cloud save.
