Managing Access

How do I give additional users access to my podcast or network's Bumper Dashboard?

To add additional users to an individual podcast, you must be either the show’s Owner (the person who originally added your podcast to the Bumper Dashboard) or, if the podcast is on a team, a Team Admin.

You can invite users from the Settings tab of your show’s Dashboard page, or by navigating to Settings → Manage Access. Enter the email address of the person you'd like to invite. Checking the box next to the name of your podcast gives them access to the show, including the ability to connect services.

You can grant a user access to multiple shows at once by adding them to a team.

If you do not have the ability to add users but believe you should, please contact support@wearebumper.com

How do I remove users from my podcast or network's Bumper Dashboard?

To remove a user, you must be the show’s Owner (the person who originally added your podcast to the Bumper Dashboard). If the podcast is on a team, you must be a Team Admin.

Navigate to Settings → Manage Access and click on the email address of the user you wish to remove. To remove them from a single podcast, uncheck the box next to the name of that show. To remove them from all podcasts you own, scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Remove User from All Shows.”

You can remove a user from a team by navigating to the user and clicking “Remove user” next to the team name. Or, navigate to the team and click “Remove user” next to the email address of the person you want to remove.

Note that if you remove a user from all of your teams and/or podcasts, you will no longer be able to see them listed on the user page. To add a user back, follow the Managing Access workflow.

What are teams?

Teams group users and shows together for simplified management of permissions. They are most useful to users who manage multiple networks. Navigate to Settings → Manage Access to add and edit teams. Give your team a name that will help you and your colleagues easily identify it.

How do I manage podcasts on a team?

Only a podcast’s owner can add that show to a team or assign it to another team. The owner is either the person who originally added the show to the Bumper Dashboard, or, if the podcast is on a team, the Team Owner. If you aren’t a show’s owner, identify the person who is and make them a Team Admin. This will allow them to assign the show to your team.

To assign a show you own to a team, go to the show settings and select "Assign to Team," or go to Settings -> Manage Access and select the relevant team. You will have the choice of assigning the podcast to any team on which you're an Owner or Team Admin.

Once a podcast is added to a team, the Team Owner (the person who originally created the team) becomes the owner of that podcast.

Note that podcasts can only exist on one team at a time.

How do I manage users on a team?

Users can be added to multiple teams. Once a user is added to a team, you can then assign them one of two levels of permissions:

• Team Member gives them access to one or more podcasts within the team, including the ability to connect services to that podcast.
• Team Admin gives them access to all podcasts within the team, along with the ability to add or remove podcasts from that team, and to add and remove users and update their permissions.

The Team Owner is the person who originally created the team. Only the Team Owner can manage billing for podcasts on their team.

If you don’t have the ability to manage users but think you should, contact your Team Owner or Admin and ask them to give you Team Admin permissions.

How do I transfer ownership of my podcast to someone else?

To transfer ownership of a podcast to someone else, create a team ("Team A") and add the podcast to that team. Then, make the intended new owner a Team Admin on that team.

The new owner must set up a team of their own ("Team B"). Once they do, they will have the ability to transfer the show from Team A to Team B, and will become the show's new owner.
