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

Change Social profile roles
The Team "Owner" or "Administrator" can change the Social profile roles of Team members.
- Click the Team icon at the bottom left of the screen → [Team members].
- Click the member whose Role you want to change.
- In Social profile roles, select Social profile administrator or Post editor.
tip
- Social profile roles can also be set when inviting a user. For details, see Invite a user (Add Team members).
- Members whose Team role is "General user" cannot view the Team members screen, so they cannot check information about other members or Social profile information.
