  1. Edit: Refine and customize your account groups effortlessly with the Edit action.


    Important Note:


    Account Groups containing pending approval posts or open outbound posts, such as draft posts or scheduled posts, cannot have their account list edited without first addressing these pending items. Editing becomes possible once these outstanding posts are resolved.

  3. Set Permissions: Govern account accessibility and permissions across users and teams:


    1. A new window displays a list of platform users. Simply, assign specific permissions such as Publish, Respond & Engage, View Reporting, and more, individually or collectively.



    2. Bulk updates are also possible through the option at the top right corner. 




    3. After adjustments, save the settings by clicking "Save" at the bottom right. 


  4. Delete: Eliminate redundant or obsolete account groups as per requirement.
