Add & manage collaborators on your media - Theming


About

Media owners can add collaborators such as co-editors, co-publishers, co-viewers, and Webcasting moderators to their media. This will make the media available in the collaborators' personal My Media.

Adding a collaborator does not change the user’s overall role in the Video Portal. Permissions apply only to the selected media.

Your administrator may also allow adding collaborators during upload.

You can also manage collaborators from the edit media page. See Edit roles and permissions for details.
