Add content to a shared repository


About

You can add content to a shared repository by selecting media and publishing it. Be sure to fill in metadata and apply filters to keep things organized. Once published, authorized users can easily search or browse the shared repository to find and use the content.

Your administrator must enable the SharedRepositories module for this feature to work.

Add content

  1. Access the edit media page for the desired media item.
  2. The edit media page displays with the Details tab open by default.
