How to See Who the Admins of a Facebook Page Are

Find out who has full control of your company's Facebook Page, who only has limited roles, and how to add a second admin before someone leaves.

Quick answer

Open the Page, go to Settings and then Page access. People with Facebook access have full control; people with task access have limited roles. If the Page belongs to a business portfolio, also check Business settings. You can only see the list if you already have access to the Page.

Step by step

1. Switch to the Page

On Facebook, switch from your personal profile to the Page profile from the profile picture menu. You need access to the Page for this.

2. Open Page access

Open Settings & privacy, then Settings, then Page access. Older layouts call it Page roles. The list shows who has Facebook access and who has task access.

3. Check the business portfolio

Go to business.facebook.com, open Business settings, then Accounts and Pages. Select the Page to see which business portfolio owns it and which people and partners have access.

4. Add a second admin

Choose Add new, find the person and give Facebook access with full control. Meta may ask for your password or for the person to confirm.

5. Remove people who have left

Remove former colleagues and agencies only after the new admin is in place, so the Page is never left without a full-control admin.

If you cannot get access

You are not on the list

Ask a current admin to add you. If nobody with full control is left, use Meta's Page access request or Business Support, and be ready to show that you represent the company.

The Page sits on a personal profile

If the only admin is a former employee's personal profile, you need that person to add you or to move the Page into the company's business portfolio.

Keep this knowledge in the company, not in one person's head

Checking once is not enough. The next time a person or a role changes, the answers disappear again unless the company keeps them somewhere shared. The Vault in Target is built for exactly this.

Record the owner and who has access

For each service, the Vault stores the login together with whose name the account is in and who has been given access, such as agencies, freelancers and colleagues.

See what needs attention

The Vault flags accounts that are not in the company's name or that are about to renew, and a checklist shows which essential services the company still has no record of.

The knowledge stays when people change

Logins belong to the company, not to a person. Access is controlled by role, every reveal is logged, and a new colleague gets the full picture on day one.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the admins of a Page if I am not an admin?

As a rule no. The list of people with access is visible only to people who have access to the Page.

What is the difference between Facebook access and task access?

Facebook access gives full control of the Page, including managing access. Task access gives limited roles such as creating content, messaging or running ads.

How many admins should a Page have?

At least two people with full control, so that losing one account or employee never locks the company out.
