Podcast Editors

Editors can work on podcasts for which they have access. An invitation does not transfer ownership of the podcast. The access type and permissions set which actions a person can do.

Invite an editor

1. Open the people settings for the correct podcast. If your account uses organization roles and permissions, use the organization settings for access.
2. If you can manage invitations, click Invite.
3. Enter the person's email address. Make sure that the address and podcast are correct and a team seat is available. Then send the invitation.
4. The person opens the invitation and signs in to Podigee or registers an account. They must accept the invitation.
5. Examine the status and access to the correct podcast.

Register as the invited editor

Start from the invitation link. For your own login as an invited person, choose an individual in I am.... The a company choice describes a company registration; it does not grant an editor or organization role. Do not select it only because you will edit a company's podcast.

You do not need to buy your own hosting plan just to accept editor access. The shared podcast uses its owner's subscription and team capacity. Organization roles and billing permissions remain separate.

You can use Sign up with Google from the registration page reached through the invitation. Choose the Google account with the invited email address. After sign-in, return to the invitation if needed and accept it. Check that the correct shared podcast appears. If you already have a Podigee login, sign in with the invited identity instead of creating another account.

If you arrive at a hosting purchase or cannot see the invitation, stop that purchase. Reopen the invitation with the correct login. Ask the inviter to check the address and invitation status if access still fails.

Invitation status

Invitation sent shows that the invitation was created. It does not show that the email arrived or that access is active. After acceptance, the status shows Active. If the email is missing, examine the address and spam folder. Send the invitation again only if this action is available.

Team seats

For a plan with account-wide team seats, the account owner uses one seat. Additional user identities are counted across the podcasts and organization memberships in that account. Pending invitations can also use seats. In this model, the same identified user is not counted again for each podcast.

This account-wide count is different from older per-podcast editor limits. Use the current contract and the quota shown in your account. Contact Podigee Support about different email addresses or older plans.

Permissions and billing

Ordinary podcast collaborators can edit the podcasts shared with them and work on their episodes. They are not permitted to delete the podcast; podcast deletion is reserved for its owner. Publishing also depends on the applicable subscription. Organization members instead receive specific permissions for editing, publishing, deleting episodes, and viewing analytics. Organization owners and admins manage the organization; billing access for members is a separate permission. Access to a podcast does not transfer its ownership. Give access only to people you trust, and review both the access type and the permissions assigned.

If no seats are available, contact the account owner or the person who manages the team and billing. Find out which options and costs apply before a purchase. A plan change in an invited person's own account does not automatically increase the podcast owner's team quota.
