Before you begin Understanding Page and Business Account Access How to approve a partner request from Pages Open Your Facebook Business Page

To give someone permission to access a Page in a Business Account that owns the page, you can approve their partner request within the owning Business Account. To transfer ownership of your Page to someone, you can approve their ownership request if you have full control of the Business Account. This scenario applies when you're trying to claim a Page that’s not owned by your Business Account. If a Page is not owned by a Business Account, you can accept the partner request on the Page by going to Settings and then Roles.

Before you begin

If you have Facebook access with full control of the Page, you can approve the request. These steps only apply to the person who has Facebook access through Business Manager.

If you don't have Facebook access with full control, send this article to the person with Facebook access in the owning Business Manager to get your request approved.

If you have made a partner or ownership request, you must know who has permission to accept the request. Due to privacy concerns, we cannot provide more information about who can accept your request.
