What is the Role of an Admin on a Facebook Page?
As the creator of a Facebook Page, you are automatically designated as an admin. As an admin, you have full control over the Page and all its settings. You can also assign other people as admins, editors, or other roles to help manage the Page.
The key responsibilities of an admin include:
- Managing the Page’s settings and information
- Creating and editing posts, stories, and other content
- Responding to messages and comments
- Managing linked accounts, such as Instagram
- Creating, managing, and deleting ads
- Using Page, post, and ad insights to analyze the performance of the Page
- Creating, editing, and deleting events
- Removing or banning people from the Page
- Giving or removing people’s Facebook access or task access to the Page or linked Instagram account
- Being able to delete the Page if necessary
It’s important to note that being an admin of a Facebook Page comes with a high level of responsibility, so be sure to only give admin access to people you trust. Additionally, if you give admin access to someone else, they will have the same access as you, so be cautious when assigning roles to other people.
What are the Other Roles on a Facebook Page?
While the admin is the person with the highest level of access and control over a Facebook Page, there are several other roles that can be assigned to help manage the Page. These roles include:
Editor: An editor has the ability to create and edit posts, stories, and other content, as well as respond to messages and comments. They can also access Page’s insights and create, edit and delete events. However, they cannot manage the Page’s settings or delete the Page.
Moderator: A moderator can respond to messages and comments, as well as manage unwanted content and report activity on the Page. They also have access to Page’s insights.
Advertiser: An advertiser can create, manage and delete ads, as well as access the Page’s insights.
Analyst: An analyst can access the Page’s insights to analyze the performance of the Page.
Community Manager: A community manager has access to moderate the chat of the Page’s live streams. They can delete or report comments, suspend users from live stream chat, ban users from the current live stream or from all live streams on the Page, and pin comments to the top of the live chat.
It’s important to note that these roles can vary depending on whether you are using the Classic Pages or the New Pages Experience. Additionally, it’s also important to keep in mind that multiple people can have roles on a Page, but each person needs their own personal Facebook account.
What are the Different Roles in the ‘New Pages Experience’?
In the New Pages Experience, Facebook has updated the roles that can be assigned to people managing a Page. Instead of Page roles, people can have Facebook access or task access to help manage a Page.
Facebook Access: People can have Facebook access with full control or partial control. They can switch to the Page and manage it on Facebook or by using other tools from Facebook. People with Facebook access with full control or partial control can manage the following:
- Content: Create, manage or delete any content on the Page, such as posts, stories, and more.
- Messages: Respond to direct messages as the Page in Inbox.
- Comments: Respond to comments on the Page and edit or delete existing comments made by the Page.
- Linked accounts: Add, manage or remove linked accounts, such as Instagram.
- Ads: Create, manage and delete ads.
- Insights: Use Page, post, and ad insights to analyze the performance of the Page.
- Events: Create, edit and delete events by the Page.
- Removal and bans: Remove or ban people from the Page.
Task Access: People with task access can manage the Page from other management tools, such as Meta Business Suite, Creator Studio, Ads Manager, or Business Manager. This means they can’t switch to the Page or manage it on Facebook. People with task access can manage the following:
- Content: Create, manage or delete posts, stories, and more. Respond to comments and update Page information.
- Messages and community activity: Respond to direct messages as the Page in Inbox, comment, manage unwanted content, and report activity on the Page.
- Ads: Create, manage and delete ads, and other ads-related tasks.
- Insights: See how the Page, content, ads and other metrics perform.
Community Manager Access: Community Managers have access to moderate the chat of the Page’s live streams. They can’t switch to the Page or manage it on Facebook. Community managers can moderate live chats through the following actions:
- Deleting or reporting comments.
- Suspending users from live stream chat for 15 minutes.
- Ban users from the current live stream or from all live streams on the Page.
- Pin comments to the top of the live chat.
It’s important to note that giving Facebook access with full control to other people means they will have the same access as you, so be cautious when assigning roles to other people. Also, the Task Access role is meant for managing a page from other tools, thus they don’t have the ability to switch to the Page or manage it on Facebook.
