The Suggestions feature gives you visibility into content changes that consumers have submitted directly on Google, Yelp, Facebook, and Bing listings, Suggestions directly from Yext, as well as suggested edits made by users in the Yext platform who only have permission to request edits. You then have the ability to approve, or reject these Suggestions in the Yext platform. For more information about Suggestions settings, see Configure Suggestions Settings.
To set up User Groups for users to approve or reject Suggestions, see Create a User Group.
Managing your Suggestions will help ensure the public facts about your brand are always accurate, up-to-date, and complete.
