# \[Video] How to add a local partner

***

## Key concepts

* A [local partner](https://help.cerby.com/getting-started/concepts/user-management/partners#h-7e4add33a2) enables you to create a subgroup or organization of guest users inside your workspace to grant them access to the accounts they need for collaboration. Additionally, you can delegate the work of inviting guest users to an external collaborator by assigning them the **Guest Admin** role.
* Only workspace **Owners**, **Super Admins**, and **Admins** can add a local partner to a workspace, assign the **Host Admin** role to a workspace member, and invite a **Guest Admin** to join the workspace. For more information about roles, read the article [Roles and permissions](https://help.cerby.com/getting-started/concepts/user-management/roles-and-permissions#h-49944f20ce).
* The **Guest Admin** must join your workspace from the email invite sent after adding the local partner. For instructions, see the video [How to join a local partner as a guest user](https://github.com/cerbyinc/help-center/blob/main/.uncategorized/video-how-to-join-a-local-partner-as-a-guest-user.md).
* As a **Host** or **Guest Admin**, you can invite additional guest users to a local partner. For instructions, see the video [How to invite a guest user to a local partner.](/tips-and-troubleshooting/video-gallery/partners/video-how-to-invite-a-guest-user-to-a-local-partner.md)
* Only **Host Admins** can share the accounts they own with a local partner and assign the **Collaborator** or **Manager** role to the **Guest Admin**. With the **Manager** role, **Guest Admins** can propagate shared access to the accounts with other guest users. For instructions, see the video [How to share an account via a local partner](/tips-and-troubleshooting/video-gallery/partners/video-how-to-share-an-account-via-a-local-partner.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.cerby.com/tips-and-troubleshooting/video-gallery/partners/video-how-to-add-a-local-partner.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
