Manage default community administrators

When you create or join a community, you are prompted to assign community administration permissions to one or more role within your tenant. By default, these permissions are assigned to two default system roles: Community Administrator and Tenant Administrator. However, you can update these default roles to any system role. For example, you can configure a custom system role named Community Manager as the default community administrator.

Prerequisites

You must be assigned a user role with community administration permissions.

To manage default community administrators

To manage default community administrators:

1. In the left pane, select Data Management > Communities.

2. Select More Options > Manage Default Community Administrators.

3. Add or remove roles as default community administrators.

   To add a role, select Add Roles and then select Add Role for any role that you want to function as community administrator.

   To remove a role, select Remove Role .

4. Select Save.

The default community administrator roles are updated. The next time that you create or join a community, the community administrator defaults to your settings.

Note: Updating default community administrators does not affect permissions for existing communities. To update permissions for existing communities, edit their permissions that are already in place. For more information, see Manage community administrators.
