How to ask for admin access to a Facebook page via the page admin?
If you don’t have a Facebook Business Manager yet, you can also ask the Facebook page admin directly to add you as the Facebook page admin.
Here is what she (the Facebook page admin) has to do:
- She has to the Facebook page that she is the admin of. On the left sidebar menu, she has to scroll down and click on “Settings.”
- Here she will see the general Page Settings menu. On the left sidebar menu, she has to click on “Page roles.”
- Here she will see a section to assign a new Page Role. She has to add your name or your email address
- Then she has to set her role as “Admin” by clicking on the dropdown menu of role options.
If she goes through these steps, you will get a notification to accept the admin role for this Facebook page.
Can’t ask for admin access for a Facebook page
Keep in mind that Facebook rolled out new Facebook pages where the admin access has been deprecated.
Now, we have Facebook Access with full control that is pretty much the same as admin access has been.
