This lets you manage who can: * publish new incidents * publish updates to existing incidents * schedule maintenance windows * publish updates to maintenance windows * modify the impact timeline of incidents and maintenance windows 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).
