If you have the Admin role in the catalog, you can manage access to the catalog on the Access control page. You add collaborators with specific roles that determine their permissions to perform actions.
Add collaborators
When you add collaborators to a catalog, you can choose to add user groups or individual users. User groups help manage a large number of users with similar access requirements.
Adding a user group to a catalog:
- On the Access control page, click the Add collaborators dropdown and select Add user group.
- Specify the role for all members of the user group:
- Viewer: can look at the catalog and add assets to projects.
- Editor: can use, add, and control access to assets. Editors can only delete assets that they are a member of or own.
- Admin: has full control of the catalog.
- Click Save.
Adding a user to a catalog:
- On the Access control page, click the Add collaborators dropdown and select Add user.
- Specify the user's role:
- Admin: has full control of the catalog.
- Editor: can use, add, and control access to assets. Editors can only delete assets that they are a member of or own.
- Viewer: can look at the catalog and add assets to projects. For more information about the available roles, see Catalog collaborator permissions.
- Enter the user's name or email address in the Collaborators field to add individuals, or enter the user group name. Then, select the user or user group in the search results. You can copy multiple email addresses, separated by spaces, and paste them into the Collaborators field.
- Click Add.
