Users, Teams & Access

An overview of how users and teams are structured in Beacon, including roles, permissions, and how access works.

Beacon supports both individual and organizational (team/brokerage) workspaces. An organization is a shared account where multiple users collaborate, with different access levels depending on role.

Roles and Beacon access

Admin users

  • Can view and manage all Beacons within the organization account.

  • Can edit Beacons created by any member (including updating content, settings, publishing, and sharing).

  • Can share Beacons with specific team members for collaboration via Beacon Settings → Share with Team Members.

Member users

  • Can view and manage:

    • Beacons they personally created, and

    • Beacons that have been explicitly shared with them by an Admin (or by another user with edit access, depending on org rules).​

  • Cannot see the full organization’s Beacon list unless a Beacon is shared with them.

Creating an Organization

Users should create an organization if they:

  • Want to connect multiple social accounts

  • Need team collaboration

How to create an organization

  1. Log into Beacon.

  2. Select Create a Team

  3. Enter the organization name (e.g., team or brokerage name).

  4. Confirm and create the organization

How to invite a team member

  1. Open the User Menu

  2. Select Manage Team

  3. Select Members.

  4. Enter the email address of the person being invited.

  5. Send the invitation.

What happens next

  • The invited user receives an email invitation.

  • They must accept the invite and complete account set-up.

  • Once accepted, they become part of the organization.

After joining

  • Admins can share individual Beacons with the user via Beacon Settings -> Share with Team Members

  • Admins can also manage which social accounts are shared org-wide.

Sharing Beacon access (per-Beacon permissions)

  • Beacon collaboration is controlled per Beacon.

  • To grant access: go to Beacon Settings → Share with Team Members, select one or more users, then Save.

  • Shared users can view/edit the Beacon (including adding content in sections and publishing)
