How to set up Shared Access

What is Shared Access?

Just as it sounds, Shared Access allows you to share access to your account's data to one, or multiple other accounts. You can choose to grant full access to any account allowing them to read and edit shared data, or read-only access. You can further restrict the access granted to the other accounts by a selection of author names.

• Grant full access to another account to give them read and write permissions to your entire account, or only to a specific list of author names
• Grant read-only access to a user to give them read permissions to a specific list of author names

info

• Each account you share access to and from needs an active Publisher Champ subscription
  • If a subscription is canceled, the shared access is revoked until the subscription is re-activated

Grant Full Access to another account

• You can grant Full Access to any valid Publisher Champ email. By doing so, they owner of the email you are granting access to will be able to read & edit any of the data you shared access with them.

1. Make sure the account you want to share access with has already registered with our platform

• The account you will share access with needs to be registered with our platform, otherwise, you will not be able to share access with them
• For example, if you have 2 KDP accounts (1 as a sole trader and 1 registered under your business), then you will need to register 2 Publisher Champ accounts in order to share access between them.

   • Leave the authors selected to all to grant your management account access to all of your data, otherwise, select only the author names you want to share
5. Click the 'Save Changes' button to grant access to your main account
6. Repeat this process (steps 1- 3) for as many accounts as you want to share access to

3. Log in to the account shared access to

• Manage all the accounts that shared access with you by using the account selection tool at the top left of each page to select one or multiple of your linked accounts
