A dialog box will appear, prompting you to enter the email address of the person you want to add. After entering the email address, select the permission level for the new user. Google Search Console offers different levels of access:
- Full: The user can view all data and take most actions, such as changing settings or submitting sitemaps.
- Restricted: The user can view most data but cannot take actions like changing settings.
Choose the appropriate permission level based on what you want the new user to be able to do.
Step 7: Add User
After selecting the permission level, click the “Add” button. Google Search Console will send an invitation to the email address you’ve provided. The invitee must accept the invitation to gain access to your Google Search Console property.
Step 8: Confirmation
Once the invitee accepts the invitation, they’ll have access to your Google Search Console property at the permission level you selected. You can verify this by returning to the “Users and permissions” page, where you should see the new user listed.
