Connect and switch between authors — ARC Library Field Notes

Guide

Accept an author connection, choose the active author, and keep every campaign in the right workspace.

A PA works with an Author workspace only after a connection is accepted.

Open an invitation while signed in with the account that should receive the connection. Review the author and the access being requested before accepting.

On Connect an Author, an author with an active connection is labelled Already connected and cannot receive a duplicate request. A request or invitation that is still waiting is labelled with its current state, so review it in Invitations & Requests instead of sending it again.

After connecting, use the author switcher in the professional workspace to choose whose books, forms, or teams you are viewing. Always check the active author before creating or editing campaign work.

Connections can be ended without deleting either person's account. Ending a connection removes the PA's working access; it does not erase the author's books or the PA's separate Reader Library.
