# Control who can publish to your internal status page

If you wish to restrict who can publish incidents and updates to your internal status page, you can achieve this with a custom role.

All of this is managed via the 'Publish to status pages' permission:

By default, the 'responder' role allows anyone in your Slack workspace to update your status page. Learn how to configure this in our [article on customizing permissions](/admin/user-permissions).
