# Give Partner Admins Access to Partner Connect Setup

Before partner admins can begin Partner Connect setup, they must be assigned the permissions required to access the setup page. Partner admins require the Customize Application permission and the Partner Connect Partner Admin Setup permission set.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small permission">
        <colgroup>
          <col style="width:50%">

            <th scope="colgroup" class="slds-cell-wrap" colspan="2" style="text-align:center;vertical-align:top;" id="d4907e27">User Permissions Needed</th>
          </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
          <tr class="">
            <td data-label="User Permissions Needed" class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;" headers="d4907e27 ">To assign permission sets to users:</td>
            <td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;" headers="d4907e27 ">Customize Application </td>
          </tr>
        </tbody>
      </table>

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Permission Sets, and then select it.
2. Find the Partner Connect Partner Admin Setup permission set and assign it to yourself or to another user who you want to act as the partner admin for Partner Connect.
    
    This permissions set contains the Set Up Partner Connect for a Partner Org permission, which gives a Salesforce admin access to the Partner Connect page in the Integrations section of Setup.
3. Assign the Customize Application permission to the partner admin, if it isn't already assigned. See [Enable User Permissions in Permission Sets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.perm_sets_app_perms.htm&type=5&language=en_US).
    
    Remember that this permission gives the user access to configure many features and settings for your org from Setup.

After assigning partner admin permissions, the partner admin can set up Partner Connect for a partner company.
