Edit Entities

How to update and manage your existing artist, promoter, venue and event pages on Sway.

Once you have created a page on Sway, you can update its information at any time — as long as you have Manager or Administrator permissions on that page.


How to access the edit screen

For any artist, promoter, venue or event page:

  1. Open the page (search for it, or find it via Settings → Manage Entities).
  2. Tap the ⋯ menu in the top bar.
  3. Choose Edit. If Edit is not in the menu, you do not have edit permissions on this page.
The pencil that used to sit in the top-right corner is gone. So is the Settings tab — Settings now lives behind the gear on your own profile, which is the avatar at the top right of Explore. See Getting around the app.

For your user profile:

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Edit your account profile at the top of the screen.

Your username, e-mail, bio and profile picture can be updated at any time from this screen.

Permission levels

There are four roles:

Manage team members❌❌partly✅
Delete the page❌❌❌✅
By default, permissions granted on a promoter are automatically shared with all events created by that promoter. This means any team member you add to a promoter will also have access to its events. To disable this behaviour, open the promoter's edit screen → tap the manage-access icon → tap the gear icon and disable "Share Promoter Permissions".
A page always keeps at least one Admin — the last one cannot be demoted or removed.
