Who sees which leads

Admins see every lead. Managers and agents see all leads, or only leads assigned to them, depending on the setting their admin chose. A separate switch decides whether they also see leads nobody owns yet.

Who can do this
Admins set it. Everyone is affected.

The rule

A teammate can see a lead when any of these is true:

  • they are an admin,

  • their access is set to All leads,

  • the lead is assigned to them,

  • the lead is unassigned and they have Can see unassigned leads turned on.

This applies everywhere: the Leads page, Pipeline, Inbox, Tasks, search, reports and exports.

Set it for a teammate

  1. Choose Team in the left sidebar.

  2. Choose Edit member on their row.

  3. Under Which leads they see, choose All leads or Assigned to them.

  4. For Assigned to them, decide whether they also see leads nobody owns yet.

  5. Save. It takes effect immediately.

An agent cannot add a leadSee Why can't I add a lead?Usually not a visibility problem any more

Giving restricted teammates new leads

Assign leads with the Assign bulk action, or set up Lead routing to assign new leads automatically, for example round robin.

In Pipelio, open Support at the bottom of the left sidebar and send a message. Workspace admins can message support directly; other teammates should ask their admin. Include what you clicked, what you expected, and the exact words of any message you saw.
