Customising Access

  • The Owner can grant or revoke specific permissions for any role.
  • Changes take effect immediately in User Management.
  • For example, you can allow a Manager to view campaigns but block template creation, or grant a Call Agent temporary campaign access.

Examples

  • A Manager can build new templates and launch campaigns but cannot delete templates or remove accounts.
  • An Admin can delete templates and fully manage campaigns but cannot modify billing settings.
  • A Call Agent can reply to incoming chats but cannot create or edit templates.
  • The Owner oversees all WhatsApp features and user-level access.

Security Best Practices

  • Restrict template and campaign creation to Owners/Admins to avoid policy violations.
  • Assign chat-only access to agents handling customer conversations.
  • Review permissions quarterly to ensure compliance with Meta’s policies.
  • Revoke access immediately for inactive or departing team members.

Summary

  • Owners = full control (including billing + user roles).
  • Admins = manage templates, campaigns, and chats, but no billing deletion.
  • Managers = operational control without delete rights.
  • Call Agents = chat-only access.
