Locale-specific access control

Locale-specific access control: scope contributor editing to specific locales so regional teams work in their language without touching the primary locale.

Locale-specific access control

Managing a global site means multiple teams editing different language versions for different regions. Without scoped access, contributors can accidentally overwrite content in a locale that isn’t theirs. You don’t want to wake up Monday morning to find your Japanese team accidentally updated your main US locale.

Locale-specific access control lets admins restrict editing to specific locales so each regional team only modifies their language content.

Locale-specific access is the third layer of Enterprise Granular Access Control, available on Enterprise plans. Together with CMS collection access and page-level access, admins can scope contributor permissions across CMS collections, site pages, and language versions.

Check out our docs to learn more about Enterprise Granular Access Control.
