Every time you switch you start from the beginning. If you switch employers after I140, you still need to do PERM again with the new company.

Hello,
I booked a h1b visa appointment for Sept 2022 by filling out ds160 with my current employer.
If I change my employer now and they transfer my H1B, is my original visa appointment still valid ? ls there a way I can update DS160 with the new petitioner and use the same visa appointment ? Or do I have to cancel and book a new visa appointment with new employer information in a new DS160 ?
Please let me know soon. Thanks
