The Read-Only Access feature lets Enterprise plan admins share access to their authenticated YouTube channels with team members who don’t have manager permissions on the channel. This means collaborators can use most vidIQ tools without being able to make changes to the channel.
How to Grant Read-Only Access:
Go to the MCN Admin dashboard
Click on the Members tab
Select Give Channel Access
Choose the authenticated channel you'd like to share
You’ll see a list of your team members — click Give access next to the person you want to grant access to
Once granted, that user will automatically be able to view the channel with read-only permissions.
What Read-Only Users Can Do:
Access most vidIQ Boost tools
View analytics and performance data
Use keyword research, competitor insights, other tools
