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.

IMPORTANT: You can only share via a host-guest partnership the accounts to which you have the Owner role.

To share an account via a host-guest partnership, you must complete the following steps:

  1. Log in to your corresponding Cerby workspace.
