What is the difference between Organization roles and Social profile roles?
In Agorapulse, roles operate at two distinct levels. Each level controls different types of access and responsibilities. Every user is assigned a role at both the Organization level and the Social profile level.
Organization Roles
Organization roles define what a user can do at the organization level, across the entire Agorapulse organization. These roles primarily control account configuration, billing, user management, and organizational settings.
Owner - Has full control over the organization, including subscription and billing settings. The Owner is automatically granted Admin access to all connected social profiles. Only one Owner can exist per organization.
Co-owner- Has full access to the organization. They can manage the subscription, the team, the settings, and connect new Social Profiles.
Manager - Has access to manage users, social profiles, and organization-level settings. Managers are also granted Admin access to all connected social profiles by default.
Managers get a Subscription access in a read-only mode and are able to purchase add-ons.Advanced Member- Has no access to account-level settings, but may be assigned permissions on specific social profiles. By default can connect social profiles.
Member - Has no access to account-level settings, but may be assigned permissions on specific social profiles.
Members can be optionally allowed to manage social profiles and ad accounts using a toggle.
Social Profile Roles
These define what actions a user can take within an individual social profile:
Admin - Full access to all features for a specific social profile.
Editor - Access to most features for a specific social profile, excluding configuration settings.
Moderator - Access to all features for the Inbox and can schedule posts, but not publish them.
Guest - View-only access, with no publishing or moderation capabilities.
Please Note: Custom organization & social profile roles are available for users on a Custom subscription plan. If you would like to change your plan to access this feature, feel free reach out to us here.
