# Share an account via a host-guest partnership

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can use this feature?**

* **Partnership Owners**
* Available to Cerby Automate
* Only supported using the Cerby web app
  {% endhint %}

As a **Partnership Owner** from the host workspace, you can share access to your accounts with a guest workspace via a host-guest partnership.

By default, the only user in the guest workspace who receives shared access to your accounts is the guest workspace **Admin**, and you can assign them the **Collaborator** or **Manager** role. With the **Manager** role, they can request access to these accounts for other guest workspace members. For more information, read the article [Request access to an account shared via a host-guest partnership](/cerby-web-app/partners/host-guest/request-access-to-an-account-shared-via-a-host-guest-partnership.md).

{% hint style="danger" %}
**IMPORTANT:** You can only share via a host-guest partnership the accounts to which you have the **Owner** role.
{% endhint %}
