# Status Page Roles and Permissions

> Control which teams can edit a status page and which teams can only publish updates to it.

Give teams the access they need to a status page without handing over full control. Status pages have two team permissions, so the team that runs the page can edit it, and teams like support or customer success can post updates without changing how the page is set up.

## The Two Team Permissions

* **Edit & Publish:** Members can change the page setup (settings, components, and appearance) and publish updates.
* **Publish only:** Members can post incidents and maintenance notices, but can't change the page setup.

## How Team Permissions Work

* **Access comes from team membership.** Everyone on a team gets the permission you assign to that team.
* **Team permissions add to role permissions.** They're added on top of each member's own role permissions and never remove them. A team can give someone more access to a status page, never less.
* **Org admins always have full access.**

> [!TIP]
>
> Check each member's role permissions first. Make sure their role is set up for status pages at the individual level, then give the team its permission.

## Give a Team Access to a Status Page

**1. Open the Page**

Go to **Status Pages**, open the page, and click **Edit**.

**2. Open Team Access**

Go to the **Authentication** tab and find **Team Access**.

**3. Add a Team**

Click **Add team**, then choose the team.

**4. Choose a Permission**

Under **Team permissions**, choose **Edit & Publish** or **Publish only**.

## Change or Remove a Team's Access

* **Change it:** Pick a different option under **Team permissions** for that team.
* **Remove it:** Click the trash icon next to the team. Members keep whatever access their role gives them.
