How to Add an Admin to Facebook Page?
Assigning or changing the owner of a Facebook page is an important process for businesses and organizations. This action involves transferring control and management responsibilities of the page to trusted individuals or team members. Facebook provides a variety of tools to help manage page ownership and access. In this guide, we'll walk through the steps for assigning, changing, and granting access to a Facebook page owner.
Assigning or Changing a Page Owner
Assigning or changing the owner of a Facebook page can only be done from a computer. To assign or change a page owner, you must have full control over the page's Facebook access. Those with full control can switch to the page and assign or change the page owner. If you want to assign a Business Manager as the page owner, you must be both the administrator of the Business Manager and have full control over the page's Facebook access. Additionally, to assign a disclaimer as the page owner, both the person who created the disclaimer and the person with full control over the page's Facebook access must agree.
Steps to Assign or Change a Page Owner:
- Log in to Facebook and select the page you want to manage by clicking on your profile picture in the top right corner.
- Access Page Settings: Click on the page's profile picture in the top right corner, then go to Settings & Privacy > Settings.
- Navigate to Page Setup: In the left menu, click on Page Setup and then select View next to Social Issues, Elections, or Political Ads.
- Select Manage under Take Control of This Page, choose a verified organization, and click Assign to confirm.
Note: This setting will not be available to all page owners. Pages with over 5,000 followers in the U.S. or those that run political ads may see this transparency setting.
Granting Task Access in the New Pages Experience
With the new Pages experience, you can grant task access to trusted individuals to help manage your page. Those with task access can't switch to the page on Facebook but can use tools like Meta Business Suite, Meta Business Manager, and Ads Manager to manage specific features. To grant task access, you must have full control of Facebook access for the page.
Steps to Grant Task Access to Someone:
- Page Feed: Click your profile picture in the top right corner, go to Settings & Privacy, then select Settings.
- Page Setup: In the left menu, click on Page Setup and then select View next to Page Access.
- Add New: Under People with Task Access, click Add New, search for the person by name or email, and select them.
- Manage Tasks: Toggle the options for the tasks you want the person to manage, then select Grant Access. Enter your password to confirm.
Note: To change what tasks a person with task access can manage, you must remove their access and follow the steps again to assign new tasks.
Granting Task Access via Meta Business Suite
You can also grant task access to someone through Meta Business Suite. Navigate to All Tools > Manage > Page Settings in the left navigation bar. This will open the Facebook Page Settings in a new window, where you can follow the instructions provided earlier to grant task access.
Once task access is granted, the person’s name will appear under People with Task Access with an Invitation Sent badge. The person will need to accept the invitation to manage tasks on your page.
Assigning a page owner or granting task access on Facebook is crucial for effective page management. The steps outlined in this guide will help you securely and efficiently manage page ownership and access. By delegating control to trusted individuals, you can better manage your business’s social media presence.
