Add and manage co-leads in your groups

Invite others as co-leads to help manage your groups. Co-leads are able to create topics, moderate videos, provide feedback, and more. There's no limit to how many co-leads you can add to a group. You can send a co-lead request to any email, even if they're new to Flip. 

Add co-leads to your groups

Tip: To add and manage co-leads to a Google Classroom group, you must use a Google email. 

1. Go to https://flip.com and log in.
2. At the left, in your Groups home, select the group where you want to add a co-lead.
3. At the bottom right of the group's cover image, click More > Add a co-lead .
4. Enter their email and click Invite.

How the user gets a co-lead invite

1. The user gets an email with a link to Flip.
   
   • If the user is already a part of Flip: They'll be directed to their existing account or asked to sign in.
   • If the user is new to Flip: They'll be directed to sign up for Flip. 
2. When the user opens Flip, they'll find a co-lead notification at the top of their Groups home page. 
   • Tip: If they don't get a notification, make sure they're signed in with the email where they received the co-lead invite. To check the email they're signed in with, they can go to their settings.
3. To become a co-lead and start to manage the group, they can click Accept. 
4. As an educator, to confirm the user is now a co-lead of your group, go to the group and click the "Students" tab. The user will have the label "Co-lead." You will also get a confirmation email.

What a co-lead can and can't do

• Co-leads are not able to delete groups. This can only be done by the group owner.
• The co-leads also have all the same settings and notifications as the group owner.
• After a co-lead is added to a group, they can duplicate the group or its topics into a group they own as an educator. Any videos in the original topics won't be duplicated. Learn how to duplicate a group or topic.

Manage your co-leads

As the group's educator, you can easily view, add, and remove co-leads from your group at any time. A group educator is the only one who can add or remove co-leads.

Important: You can't transfer group ownership to others.

Find and remove co-leads

1. Go to https://flip.com and log in.
2. At the left, in your Groups home, select the group with the co-lead you want to remove.
3. Under the group's cover image, select the Students tab .
4. Next to the co-lead you want to remove, click More > Remove co-lead .
5. In the remove message, click Remove and delete.

Block and unblock co-leads

If you choose to block a co-lead, they’re not only removed from the group but you’re also not able to invite them back to the group without unblocking them first. If you unblock a co-lead, their status as a co-lead is restored.
