Assign business assets to people in your business portfolio in Meta Business Suite

This article covers how to give people permissions to manage or complete specific tasks for business assets – such as Pages, Instagram accounts and ad accounts – that have been added to a business portfolio.

You can assign assets when adding someone to a business portfolio. The below instructions cover assigning business assets to people who are already in the business portfolio.

Note: If a partner (example: an agency you work with) shares a business asset with your organization, then you're limited to the specific permissions that your partner assigned. This may prevent you from giving someone full control of that particular business asset.

• To assign most business assets you need to have full control of the business portfolio.

  • For Pages, Instagram accounts, WhatsApp accounts, Commerce accounts and catalogs, you can assign people already in the portfolio access if you have full control of the asset.
• You need to add the business assets to your business portfolio before you can assign access. Learn how to add a Page, an ad account, an Instagram account or an app.
• Consider enabling two-factor authentication to help protect your business portfolio and assets from unauthorized access.
• Note: If your organization needs to regain full control of a business portfolio, you can submit a request.
