# Delegate feed privileges to other users on MyGet

**[Maarten Balliauw](https://daily.dev/sources/maartenballiauw)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

MyGet, a NuGet feed hosting service, announced new features allowing feed owners to delegate co-admin or contributor privileges to other users for managing packages, the ability to make feeds private by requiring authentication (not yet compatible with NuGet 1.4), and expanded global deployment with servers in Europe and the US for faster feed management. The team also floats the idea of a future premium, self-hosted version and asks readers for feedback via a survey.

## Questions this post answers

### How do I give another user access to manage packages on my MyGet feed?

MyGet lets you delegate feed privileges to another user by going to the feed details, opening the Feed security tab, and clicking Add feed privileges. You can assign no access, consume-only access, manage packages, or manage users and packages. The invited user must then claim the privileges via a link sent in an automated email before access is granted.

_Teams managing shared package feeds can follow coverage of access control features like this on daily.dev._

### Can I make a NuGet feed require authentication so it's not publicly accessible?

Yes, a feed can be made private by setting the privilege for Everyone to Has no access to this feed on the Feed security tab, which forces MyGet to request basic authentication before anyone can view or consume the feed's packages. Note that this authentication requirement was not yet supported by NuGet 1.4 clients at the time, with support expected in NuGet 1.5.

_Developers locking down private package feeds can track such compatibility details on daily.dev._
