Manage access to your page

- It’s up to the Artist's team to review all additional access requests for your label reps, management, and others who might work on projects with you. Artists and artist managers with Administrator access are responsible for reviewing additional access requests.

If you are a label representative looking to join an artist’s Apple Music for Artists profile, work directly with your artist to review your request. Requests will expire after 30 days if artists or artist managers take no action.
