To delegate access to an InMotion Hosting account, you can create a team in InMotion Central and invite members to the team, setting their permissions (team role) as needed. Alternatively, you can use features within WHM (Web Host Manager) to grant reseller access or modify account settings to allow access. You can also create FTP accounts or other logins for specific access needs, such as for developers, and limit access based on groups and permissions.

Here's how to add delegate access:
-
1. InMotion Central Teams:
- Login to InMotion Central and navigate to the Teams section.
- Create a team if one doesn't exist.
- Invite a team member by entering their email address and sending an invite.
- Set the team member's permissions (role) to control their access level.
- The invited user will receive an email with a link to accept the invitation and sign in.
2. WHM (Web Host Manager) Reseller Access:- Use WHM to create a cPanel account, selecting the "Make the account a Reseller" option during initial setup.
- For existing accounts, modify the account in WHM and ensure "Reseller Privileges" is selected as "Yes".
3. Account Access via FTP and other Logins:- Create FTP accounts for secure file transfer.
- Create other logins (e.g., for databases) within your cPanel.
- Limit access by assigning users to groups and modifying group permissions.
- Consider using cPanel's User Manager to manage FTP, email, and Web Disk users.
4. Developer Access:- Provide site logins, such as WordPress logins, for access to individual sites.
- Limit access to the minimum necessary.
- Consider using developer passphrases for added security.
- Review FTP accounts after developer access to ensure security.
5. Security Considerations:
Regularly review user permissions and access, Change passwords frequently, and Remove access after the task is completed.
By using these methods and carefully managing permissions, you can delegate access to your InMotion Hosting account securely and efficiently.
