# Change a Contributor’s Access Role

You can change a contributor’s access role to increase or decrease the level of access. A contributor’s access role is specific to a CMS workspace, so you must change the contributor’s role in each assigned workspace. Admins can’t change their own role.

    Note To prevent you from accidentally removing your access to a workspace, you can’t edit or remove your own contributor role. To change your level of access, another admin must update your role.
3. Select the new contributor role, and click **Update**.
