How to assign social accounts to different members of my workspace
Desktop Version
In order for your business to have a smooth workflow and good management, it is highly suggested to specify each member’s role and posting access.
Remember:
- Members will only have access to the social accounts they have been assigned.
- They will still see Drafts from all members of the team.
- You should make sure to select Use before starting to work on a Workspace.
- Only the Owner can change a member’s role (Admin, Editor or Client).
To assign social accounts to different members:
- Go to the dropdown button on the top right corner, next to your profile, and choose one of your workspaces.
- Choose a specific workspace and on the left panel click **Members **tab.
- Click on the three dots ... and then click on the Edit social accounts.
- Click Add social account and decide which one you want to assign to them.
If they’re Admins:
- You can’t decide their posting access, because they have Full Posting Access by default.
- Unless the Client for the specified social accounts has "Should Approve posts". In that case, their posts will need to be approved by the Client before they go out.
- You can only decide if they will post: using Owner's credentials or member's credentials.
If they’re Editors:
- You can decide their posting access: Should (not) be approved by Admin/Owner
- Moreover, if the Client for the specified social accounts has "Should Approve posts", then their posts will also need to be approved by the Client before they go out.
- You can only decide if they will post: using Owner's credentials or member's credentials.
If they’re Clients
- You can decide their account access: Client with read-only access / Client with posting access / Client with full access
- You can decide their approval access: Should approve posts/ Should not approve posts
- If they have "Should approve posts" access, then the posts created by any of the Editors, Admins, or Owner for that social account will need to be approved by the Client.
- You can only decide if they will post: using Owner's credentials or member's credentials.
