Managing your site with the Wix app

Wix App: Inviting and Managing Collaborators

Assign roles and permissions to collaborators so they can help manage your site and business through the Wix app. Granting collaborators the right level of access gives them the flexibility to manage and collaborate on your site on the go.

Inviting people to collaborate

Invite collaborators and assign them one or more roles, depending on what you want them to do. You can add, view, and edit roles for your site from here.

Important:

Some roles and permissions can only be accessed via the Wix app or the dashboard specifically. Learn more about roles and permissions that are specific to the dashboard.

What's next?

When you invite someone to work on your site, they receive an invitation email. If they already have an account, they can simply log in to accept the invitation. If they don't, they can create a free Wix account to get started. Collaborators have to enter the right credentials, and follow the correct login process to collaborate on your site via the Wix app. Your collaborators need to:

Open the Wix app.
Sign up in via Google, Facebook or email.
Tap Sign Up.

Changing collaborator roles and permissions

A collaborator's role gives them different permissions to help manage your site. You can edit a collaborator's role at anytime right from the Wix app to change what information they can view and what actions they can perform.

Note:

When you update the role of a collaborator, their permissions change in the app and dashboard.

To change permissions of a collaborator:

Go to your site in the Wix app.
Tap Manage
at the bottom.
Scroll down to Settings and tap Roles & Permissions.
Tap Collaborators.
Tap the More Actions icon
next to the relevant collaborator.
Tap Change Role.
Select one or more roles for your invitee.
Tap Save.
