Changing permissions

You can change a user's workspace role or channel-level access at any time. Changes take effect immediately.

Changing a workspace role

  1. Settings → Team.
  2. Click the user's row.
  3. Change their role (Owner, Admin, Editor, Author, Viewer).

For roles other than Owner, this is a one-click change. To transfer ownership, the current Owner must demote themselves and assign Owner to someone else. There can only be one Owner.

Changing channel-level access

  1. Open the channel → Permissions.
  2. Find the user and adjust their access for that channel.

Channel-level access can only reduce a user's workspace role, not expand it. A workspace Viewer cannot be promoted to Editor on a single channel.

Effects of changes

  • Demotion (e.g. Editor → Author): the user keeps existing drafts but can no longer publish directly. Their already-scheduled posts continue to publish.
  • Promotion: takes effect immediately.
  • Role change while logged in: the user's UI updates on next page navigation.

Removing a user

In the user's row, click Remove from workspace. They lose access immediately. Their authored posts stay (with their name attached) — removing a user does not delete their content.

If the user was assigned as the only approver on pending drafts, those drafts re-open to any-approver assignment.
