By role
- Owner and Admin: propose, approve (high-risk changes too), publish, roll back and undo.
- SEO manager: propose, publish, roll back and undo, but not approve.
- Approver: approve changes that are not high risk.
- Content editor: propose only.
- Analyst and Viewer / client: read only.
High-risk changes
A change is high risk when it:
- is bulk: more items than the bulk limit (10 by default);
- removes or hides content: hides a page from search engines (noindex or nofollow), points the canonical address at another page, removes links or replaces structured data;
- publishes pages.
Only an owner or admin can approve a high-risk change. Every change shows its risk (low, medium or high), and a Removes or hides content tag when it does. Some tools set the risk by fix: in Speed fixes, deferring scripts and the caching and compression rules are high risk.
When a tool approves for you
Fix all in the fix jar, approving redirects in Broken links & 404s and Approve and apply in Speed fixes count as approval only when your role may approve that change. Anything else waits in Act → Changes for an owner or admin.
Fix all never approves new page text or new pages by itself: a person reads them first.
