## Who Can Access What

Not everyone on your team sees every tab. Access depends on your role:

## Quick Tips

<Tip>
  **Start with Profile.** Make sure your display name, URL slug, and bio are set up before sharing any smart links with fans. These details appear on your public pages.
</Tip>

<Tip>
  **Connect integrations early.** The sooner you connect Shopify, Instagram, and SMS, the more data Fanaura can collect from day one.
</Tip>

<Warning>
  **Set your timezone.** This affects when delay nodes fire in your flows, when scheduled blasts send, and how time-based conditions evaluate. Get this right early.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  **Review team roles carefully.** Giving someone Admin access means they can change your settings and manage your team. Only grant this to people you fully trust.
</Warning>
