Each station account on exchange.prx.org has one or more admins who can add station staff to the station account and control email settings. If you do not know who your admins are, contact help@prx.org, or you can view them from the Staff sidebar on the right of a PRX station profile.
Adding staff to a station account on exchange.prx.org is what gets them access to the network at networks.prx.org. Thus…
Each person must have their own account on exchange.prx.org associated with the station where they work. If a person is unsure if they have an account (this is very common), have them contact help@prx.org. To create an account if you do not have one, go to exchange.prx.org and click “Create an Account”
Once individuals have an account on exchange.prx.org, a station admin can add them to the station account by following these steps:
- Log into PRX Exchange and click MY PRX on the right.
- Choose your station account from Choose Account.
- Scroll down to Manage Members
- Search for staff via email, full name, or username. Click “make member” to add staff.

To determine who at a station receives notifications about new items posted to the network, a station admin needs to do the following steps:
- Log into prx.org and click MY PRX on the right.
- Choose your station account from Choose Account.
- Scroll down to Email Settings.
- In Email Settings, scroll down to Network Piece Published. Check/uncheck who you want, and click save. You can also add email addresses to the box. For example, newsroom@wxyz.org, if you want a whole newsroom to get something even if a person is not part of the network.
