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.
- This feature requires the MediaCollaboration module to be enabled.
- Your administrator can allow adding collaborators during upload.
- Adding a collaborator does not change the user’s overall role in the application. Permissions apply only to the selected media.
- You can also manage collaborators from the edit media page. See Manage roles and permissions for details.
- For detailed information about collaborator permissions, see Collaborator roles and permissions.
