How Do I Change User Permissions?

How to Change User Permissions in Your PhotoBiz Account

Overview

Each PhotoBiz account includes the Users feature, which allows you to create additional users with their own login credentials and customized access permissions. This makes it easy to collaborate with team members, assistants, studio managers, or other staff members without sharing your main account password.

You can control what each user can access, including website content, marketing tools, client management features, account settings, and purchase permissions. Permissions also control which sections and tools appear inside the user’s PhotoBiz control panel after they log in.

This guide will walk you through how to update permissions for an existing user in your PhotoBiz account.

STEP ONE

Log into your PhotoBiz account and click MY ACCOUNT in the left-side menu.

This opens your account management area where you can manage billing, users, account settings, and additional account features.

STEP TWO

Click USERS at the top of the My Account control panel.

This will display all users currently connected to your account.

STEP THREE

Click on the name of the user whose permissions you want to update.

This opens the user settings panel where you can manage their access levels and account permissions.

STEP FOUR

In the Permissions section, check or uncheck the boxes to control what this user can access within your PhotoBiz account.

You can also adjust additional settings, including:

Allow Account Purchases
Allow My Account Section Access

When you are finished updating the permissions, click SAVE CHANGES to apply the updates.

FINAL STEP

After saving your changes, the updated permissions will take effect immediately. The user will only be able to access the areas and features you have enabled for their account.

If you remove access to certain sections, those areas will no longer appear in the user’s control panel after they log in.

Helpful Notes

Recommended Permission Management Tips

Only grant access to the tools and sections a user needs
Limit My Account access to trusted administrators
Disable Account Purchases unless the user needs billing or upgrade access
Review permissions regularly if your team changes over time
If a user reports missing menu items or unavailable tools, review their assigned permissions first

Important Information About Users

Each user has their own login credentials
User activity is tied to their individual login account
The primary account owner cannot be restricted and always maintains full access to all account features and billing settings

Client Galleries Dashboard Access

The Client Galleries Dashboard is connected to the ECommerce permission.

If a user does not have the ECommerce permission enabled, they will not see the Client Galleries Dashboard or related sales and reporting information inside Client Galleries.

This helps account owners control access to financial and sales-related data within their account.
