Using Admin Center to give people a managed Meta account

To give people in your organization a managed Meta account in Admin Center, you need to be a system admin or other admin with relevant permissions.
You can give people an account manually or by connecting a third-party identity provider (IdP) including Google Workspace, Okta and Microzoft Azure AD.
Use the dropdowns below to find out more about the different options and how each will affect how you manage people's accounts.

If an account has already been created in another Admin Center

Only 1 managed Meta account can be created per email address. However, 1 managed Meta account can have access to more than 1 organization’s Admin Center, using external relationships.
If the email domain associated with the account you’re trying to create is verified in your Admin Center, then you can still create the person’s account even if they already have one that’s managed from another Admin Center. For this person to claim the new account you have created for them, they may be prompted to:
  • Deactivate their account that is currently associated with another Admin Center. They can do this in Your information in the Accounts Center for their managed account.
  • Delete their organization, if they’re the only member of the organization.
  • Reassign their admin permissions or deactivate all other accounts in the organization, if they are the only system admin.

View the managed Meta accounts you've created

When you've created a managed Meta account for someone, it will be shown in DirectoryDirectory in Admin Center. You may need to wait a few minutes and refresh the page to see the accounts when you have added them.
As soon as someone with a managed account has access to either Admin Center or a product that’s been connected to Admin Center, they will need to activate their account.
You can see the total number of added accounts as well as the number of activated accounts in Insights.
