Step 2: Permission Levels On GoDaddy

2.1 Products, Domains, & Purchases:
Delegates can make purchases on your behalf using your stored payment method.
Access your products control panels, and cancel new products.
For domains, delegates can handle management actions, transfer actions, or both. Refer to delegate folder permissions for more information.
2.2 Products & Domains:
Delegates can access your products, including control panels, and cancel new products.
For domains, delegates can manage actions, transfer domains, or both. Learn about assigning delegate folder permissions for customization.
2.3 Domains Only:
Delegates can handle management actions, transfer actions, or both, specifically for domains. Refer to delegate folder permissions for detailed settings.
2.4 Accounts Connection Only:

Choose this level to maintain a connection with the delegate for future collaborations and tasks.
That's it. You're done. Good job!
