Giving someone access to your Webflow account can be a convenient way to collaborate with others on website design and development. Whether you’re working with a team or hiring a freelancer, granting access is a simple process. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to give someone access to your Webflow account.
Step 1: Sign in to your Webflow Account
To begin, open your favorite web browser and navigate to the Webflow website. Click on the “Sign In” button in the top-right corner of the page. Enter your login credentials and click “Sign In” again.
Step 2: Access Your Account Settings
Once you’ve successfully logged in, you’ll land on your Webflow dashboard. Look for your profile picture or initials in the top-right corner of the page and click on it. A dropdown menu will appear – select “Account settings” from this menu.
Step 3: Navigate to the Team Tab
In the account settings, you’ll find several tabs on the left side of the page. Locate and click on the “Team” tab. This tab contains all the options related to managing team members and granting access.
Step 4: Invite a Team Member
Within the “Team” tab, you’ll see an option labeled “Invite Team Member.” Click on this option to proceed further.
Step 5: Enter Email Address
A pop-up window will appear asking for an email address. Enter the email address of the person you want to grant access to and click on “Send Invitation.”
- Note: Make sure you enter a valid email address that belongs to the person you want to invite.
- You can invite multiple people at once by separating their email addresses with commas.
- If there are multiple owners or admins within your account, they will receive an email notification about the invitation.
Step 6: Set Access Level
After sending the invitation, you’ll be redirected to the “Team” tab. Find the invited team member in the list and click on their name.
Access Levels:
There are three access levels you can choose from:
- Owner: Owners have full control over the account, including billing and team management. There can be multiple owners within an account.
- Admin: Admins have access to most features and can manage team members, but they don’t have billing control.
- Editor: Editors can only modify sites they’ve been given access to and can’t manage team members or billing.
Step 7: Assign Access Level
In the team member’s profile, you’ll find a dropdown menu labeled “Role.” Click on this dropdown menu and select the appropriate access level for the team member.
Step 8: Save Changes
Once you’ve selected the access level, click on “Save changes” to finalize the process. The team member will receive an email invitation with instructions on how to accept it and gain access to your Webflow account.
Congratulations!
You have successfully given someone access to your Webflow account. Now you can collaborate with them seamlessly and work together in designing and developing your website.
If at any point you need to revoke or change someone’s access level, simply follow these steps again and make necessary adjustments.
Giving someone access to your Webflow account is a straightforward process that enhances collaboration. By following these steps, you’ll be able to involve others in your web design journey without compromising security or control over your account.
