Roles in a workspace
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Owner | Everything, including billing and deleting the workspace |
| Admin | Everything except billing: team, accounts, API keys |
| Manager | Posts, approves others’ posts, manages accounts |
| Editor | Creates and schedules posts |
| Contributor | Writes drafts; a manager approves them |
| Viewer | Sees the calendar and results |
Troubleshooting
Every workspace needs an owner. Make someone else owner first.
Give another person the Owner role, then change your own.
Only an owner can change who is an owner.
Ask the owner.
Owners can't be removed. Change their role first.
Change the owner’s role to something else (an owner can do this), then remove them.
Your role (editor) can't do this. Ask an admin.
Your role doesn’t include this action (the role name changes). Ask an admin or the owner.
