How to Grant Access to Another Porkbun User as an Authorized User
Before you can add another account as an authorized user, we require both accounts to have verified their account email address and phone number and to have enabled 2FA.
There are times when you may want to allow other users to manage your domain's DNS and hosting settings. You can do this by adding their Porkbun account as an Authorized User. Authorized Users will have full access to make changes to your account, but are not able to unlock the domain or initiate account transfers.
To invite an authorized user, they will need to already have a Porkbun account created, and you will then invite them with their Porkbun username. The account will also need to have the email address and phone number verified and also must have 2FA enabled.
The following steps walk through assigning another account as an Authorized User.
- 1
While logged into your Porkbun account, go to the ACCOUNT menu in the top-right and select the option for Authorized Users.
- 2
On that page, enter the username for the Porkbun account you want to grant access to, and then click the Submit button. This will send a confirmation email to the other user's Porkbun account email address.
- 3
The other user will need to check their mail and click the Accept or Decline Access button in that email. This will take them to a page where they can accept access.
- 4
Once they have accepted, the same page will allow them to log in to the account. They can also reach this page at any time by going to the ACCOUNT menu and clicking the Authorized Users option.
