Create, edit, or delete a team

Create teams to manage tasks for specific social accounts, such as content creation, customer engagement, or customer support. You can create as many teams as you want and your members and social accounts can belong to multiple teams.

Create a team

Once you've added members to your organization (see Add a member to an organization or team), you can create teams to group social accounts and members who you want to have access to them. Members and social accounts can be added to multiple teams in the same organization.

Super Admins, Admins, and members with the custom organization permission to Manage teams can create teams. An organization Super Admin or Admin inherits Team Admin permissions but is not automatically added as a team member. They must be a member of the team to view team analytics.

Follow the instructions for your plan. If you don't know what plan you have, go to Hootsuite and select Account - you'll find it below your name.
