Hello ,

Below is migration playbook from the Qlik help site.

I believe the only was to do this to make them public, migrate, and make them private again. @ChristofSchwarz has posted about a tool to make this process easier:

Hi ... The above article on Linkedin is between on-prem and other on-prem environment. Short answer is: it is possible to migrate all private and community content from an Qlik Sense App on-prem to Qlik Cloud. The overall process is a bit complex. https://qlik.dev/manage/migrate/qlik-cli-app-objects-migrate/ 

In a nutshell: during export there is a special flag (not available in QMC but only via Qlik CLI or API) that makes all content to be exported. After import, you need to change the owners of all the previous non-base-content (private and community sheets) to the equivalent user on cloud. That is the hard part, as the user Id on cloud is different for even the same person from on-prem. 

We offer a tool that makes this app migration easy, you can reach out to me if you're interested on csw@databridge.ch

Following up with what @ChristofSchwarz mentioned. I used the code snippet from Qlik:
https://qlik.dev/manage/migrate/qlik-cli-app-objects-migrate/

Two key changes I made was to export the app without data (--skipdata) to speed up the process and to clean up/remove any unused objects (Sheets, Stories, Bookmarks) as well before migrating the apps to cloud. We tested with a few users and they seem to retain ownership of their private sheets and bookmarks with the migrated apps. Fingers crossed it keeps working.

Yes, you can definitely migrate private sheets and bookmarks to the Qlik Cloud using a tool like Q^Plus Cloud Migrator. It simplifies the bulk migration process, eliminating the need for PowerShell code
