To post on behalf of another user, you must have a content collaboration established with that user. Only a Company Admin is authorized to create and manage content collaborations, while Content Owners can delete their own collaborations.

There are restrictions on which users can be Content Owners or Content Writers in a collaboration. Learn more in Post On Behalf overview.

Create a content collaboration

1. Go to Administration > Settings > Post on behalf
2. Select Add collaborators
3. Choose a Content Owner by searching with part of their name and selecting them from the list
4. Choose a Content Writer by searching with part of their name and selecting them from the list
5. Determine what the Content Writer is allowed to do on behalf of the Content Owner: Post creation and/or External Share
6. If applicable, add another Content Writer. You can have multiple Content Writers for one Content Owner.
7. Select Save to create the collaboration

Once an admin has created a collaboration, a notification is sent to the Content Owner for their approval or rejection of the collaboration before it becomes active. Learn more in Approving or rejecting a content collaboration.

Role restrictions for a collaboration

There are restrictions on which users can be content owners or content writers in a collaboration:

• A Company or Group Admin cannot be a Content Owner, but they can be a Content Writer.
• A Content Owner cannot be a Content Writer for someone else; vice versa, a Content Writer cannot also be a Content Owner.
• A Content Owner can have multiple Content Writers that are allowed to create and/or share content on their behalf. Permissions are given on a user level, so one Writer can be allowed to only create content while another can be allowed to create and share content. 
• A Content Owner cannot have multiple separate collaborations with different Content Writers. Only one collaboration per Content Owner. All Content Writers must be added in the same collaboration.
