SHARED ACCESS: GRANT PRIVILEGES FOR OTHER USERS TO ACCESS YOUR ACCOUNT shared-access

You may grant limited access to your account for other Magento Account holders. In particular, using the shared access functionality, you may provide privileges for trusted employees and service providers to use your Help Center account so that they could work with your support tickets.

You can provide and manage shared access using your Magento Account page at https://account.magento.com.

Who can provide shared access who-can-provide-shared-access

Only the Account Owner (Primary Account Holder) with the according privileges can provide shared access for other users.

Managing users and their access is the customer’s responsibility, especially in the shared access perspective. Thus, the Adobe Commerce support team cannot provide shared access to a Magento Account on behalf of a Customer. Customers are encouraged to add users with shared access themselves, using the Magento Account page.

Users who have been provided with shared access cannot transfer or grant such access to other users.

Provide shared access provide-shared-access

See the Sharing Your Account section of Adobe Commerce User Guide for detailed steps on setting up a shared account.

After providing shared access for a new user, the related information is available in Shared Access > Manage Permissions of your Magento Account page.

Revoke (delete) shared access revoke-shared-access

How to delete users who were granted shared access via a Cloud project? remove-cloud-shared-access-users

Affected products and versions

Cause

If you have/had an Adobe Commerce Cloud project and had added a user to the project, they would have been automatically granted Shared Access on the Project Owner’s MAGE ID. This would normally be indicated in the Share Name column, showing Cloud Shared Access from MAG[XYZ].

If the DELETE link is missing, that means that Shared Access was automatically granted through Commerce Cloud.

Solution

It’s not possible to delete the list of Shared Access users with the Share Name of Cloud Shared Access from MAG[XYZ] if the Shared Access wasn’t added/given on this page. These are retained for informational/audit purposes.

However, once you have revoked the permissions on those Shared Access users, they will no longer have that access.

For more information, please refer to the Manage User Access documentation on our Commerce on Cloud Infrastructure Guide.

Access shared account (switch accounts) switch-accounts

To use the shared access provided for you, follow these steps:

To know which account you are currently using (your own native account or shared access), see the Switch Accounts menu: it displays the active account.
