Setting Social profile roles for team members
This explains how to set "Social profile roles" for Team members to restrict operations each team member can perform on Social profiles.
What you can do
- Restrict the functions Team members can operate
- Allow specific members to only create Post Drafts
- Prevent accidental posting to Social profiles they are not responsible for
Social profile roles
There are two types of roles that can be set for each Social profile:
Social profile administrator
- Post approval
- Approval requests cannot be made.
- All operations related to Social profiles are possible, except for approval requests.
Post editor
- Creating and editing Post Drafts
- Creating scheduled posts and "Post now" are not possible.
- Functions other than posting (such as Analytics, Keyword Monitor, Followers management) can be used without restrictions.
- Request for Post approval
tip
- Immediately after linking a Social profile, the Team member who linked it is automatically set as a "Social profile administrator", and other Team members are set as "Post editor".
- Even if your Team role is "Owner" or "Administrator", if your Social profile roles is not "Social profile administrator", you cannot use functions that are only available to a "Social profile administrator".

- Click the member whose Role you want to change.
- Select Social profile administrator or Post editor for Social profile roles.
