# Requesting edit access

To make chatbot building more clean we're adding read-only access.

By default, only the initial user has **EDIT** access to the bot builder canvas, while additional users have **READ-ONLY** access.

#### **To request edit access:**

1. Click “Read Only”
2. Enter a request message
3. Request is sent to the editor for approval
   1. If approved, you’ll receive confirmation, and the page will reload with edit access
   2. If declined, you will remain in read-only mode

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: If the editor neither approves nor declines the request, access will be automatically granted after 30 seconds.
{% endhint %}
