Add or remove admission to your YouTube channel

If yous have a Make Account, you can now use channel permissions to add together or remove admission to your YouTube aqueduct instead. Notation that Brand Accounts using channel permissions, including owners, temporarily can't use Live Command Room. Learn more.

You lot tin can have multiple people manage your aqueduct without giving them access to your Google Business relationship. Inviting someone to manage your aqueduct:

  • Is safer than sharing your password.
  • Lets you give only the amount of admission they need.
  • Is less disruptive by making the user comment or view videos on YouTube with their own channel.

  • Can only manage your channel in YouTube Studio on estimator or partially on mobile.
  • Tin't manage via YouTube.com or YouTube APIs.
