About
In the Video Portal, administrators and gallery managers can create sub-galleries under existing parent galleries. Parent galleries must be created in the Kaltura Management Console (KMC). Once parent galleries exist, you can create and manage sub-galleries directly in the Video Portal.
Sub-galleries help you further organize content, assign permissions, and manage users within a gallery
