# Adding an Administrator

[Publisher](https://github.com/DNAstack/dnastack-product-docs/blob/main/docs/publisher/settings/broken-reference/README.md) enables you to grant administrative access to new users and reinstate previous administrators. This guide covers both processes.

## Inviting New Administrators

To add new administrators to Publisher:

1. Navigate to Settings through the left sidebar
2. Click "Invite Admins" in the top right corner
3. Enter administrator details:
   * Provide the required email address
   * Optionally add their name for easier identification
4. For multiple invitations:
   * Click "Add another" to create additional entry fields
   * Enter each administrator's information
   * Remove entries if needed using the delete (trash) icon
5. Click "Send Invitation" to distribute access invitations

New administrators appear with "Invited" status until their first login, after which they automatically transition to "Enabled" status.

## Reinstating Previous Administrators

To restore access for a previously disabled administrator:

1. Access the Settings page
2. Use the search bar to locate the administrator by name or email
3. Click the Actions menu next to their entry
4. Select "Enable Access" from the dropdown
5. Confirm the reinstatement in the verification dialog

Once reinstated, administrators regain full access to Publisher's administrative functions. Consider reviewing current permissions and notifying other administrators when making access changes.
{% endhint %}
