Add or remove access to your YouTube channel

If you have a Make Account, you lot tin can now use channel permissions to add or remove access to your YouTube channel instead. Note that Make Accounts using channel permissions, including owners, temporarily can't use Alive Control Room. Larn more.

Yous can have multiple people manage your channel without giving them access to your Google Account. Inviting someone to manage your aqueduct:

  • Is safer than sharing your password.
  • Lets you give just the amount of access they need.
  • Is less confusing by making the user comment or view videos on YouTube with their own aqueduct.

Limitations

Right at present, people you've invited to manage your channel:

  • Can but manage your channel in YouTube Studio on estimator or partially on mobile.
  • Can't manage via YouTube.com or YouTube APIs.
  • Tin't practice certain actions in YouTube Studio (See the tabular array below).
  • Owners can still make people moderators where they can reply and moderate within YouTube.com and the YouTube app.

Annotation: Channel permissions are still in development, and then check back here to see if new features are supported.
