Instructions
Providing you have specific user permissions as outlined in this article, you can manage the permissions given to the users you added to your account in the Publisher Dashboard. User roles can be upgraded, downgraded, or customized. Users can also be suspended from accessing the account.
Permission Levels
When managing users, you can assign them a built-in permission level or customize their access. The roles with built-in permission levels are Master, Admin and User. A fourth role, Custom, allows you to tailor a user’s permission as detailed in the Custom Permissions section below.
Note
Currently, the master user role cannot be assigned to new or preexisting users in the dashboard. If you need to assign this role, contact Customer Support for assistance.
The permissions available to each user role are as follows; for the custom role, an asterisk (*) indicates access can be granted or removed:

Instructions
Follow these steps to manage account users in the dashboard:
- Go to Account in the navigation header and click Account Details.
- Navigate to the Users tab.
- Click the three-dot menu to the right of the row corresponding to the user whose permissions you want to manage and select Edit permissions.
- Use the drop-down menu to select a new user role. If you select Custom, you are prompted to select specific permissions from the list detailed in the Custom Permissions section above. You must select at least one.
- Click Save.
The user’s role is immediately changed.
Note
Administrators cannot downgrade or customize their own permissions or those of other administrators or master users.
Channel Access
Managing user permissions is different from managing a user’s access to the different channels on your account. Administrators have access to all channels. Users and those with custom permissions only have access to the channels you select for them. View steps for adding or removing a user's access to channels.
