# Edit Distributor package permissions in the console
<a name="distributor-working-with-packages-ep"></a>

After you add a package to Distributor, a tool in AWS Systems Manager, you can edit the package's permissions in the Systems Manager console. You can add other AWS accounts to a package's permissions. Packages can be shared with other accounts in the same AWS Region only. Cross-Region sharing isn't supported. By default, packages are set to **Private**, meaning only those with access to the package creator's AWS account can view package information and update or delete the package. If **Private** permissions are acceptable, you can skip this procedure.

**Note**  
You can update the permissions of packages that are shared with 20 or fewer accounts.
