Has anyone gone through the naturalization process who formally had Global Entry approval on their Green Card? Is there a process for having this transferred to your newly acquired US passport?

Did you try the website? When I did my Global Entry i was using my conditional gc. The agent told me once I will get the new card I can update the information on their website. I did not check it, but maybe you can select a passport and enter the passport number? worth a try to look around on the website

Yes. You need to go to a Global Entry office (no appointment needed) with your US passport and Known Traveller Number, and ask the officer to upgrade your status to US citizen.

 

I saw no way to do this online. 

 

This was in February 2018.  It is possible it can be done online now, but I have not checked as I've no reason to check.

 

Note that until you get your US passport and register that passport with Global Entry, you cannot use Global Entry.

Yes, although it depends on the Global Entry office. I got a same day passport in Detroit and thought i would use GE office in Michigan on the same day. However, they were far from helpful  (pretty rude actually). Suffice to say, I got it changed in my home state of ohio later that week with no issues or appointment. Walk in, explain your circumstances and they will update their records. However, if you want the physical GE card updated, there is a fee (not worth it nor needed).
