Granting Page Permissions Using Meta Business Suite

Last reviewed

Meta Business Manager lets you grant another Facebook user only the permissions they need — publishing campaigns, running comment contests, and creating feeds — without handing over full admin access to your Page. You need Admin permissions in Meta Business Manager to make the change, and anything you grant can be edited or revoked later.

Overview

  • Publish campaigns

  • Run comment contests

  • Create feeds

This method eliminates the need to provide full admin access to your Page.

This document guides you through the steps to grant appropriate permissions to another Facebook user to use Facebook—and Instagram-related ShortStack features.
