About
Configure media collaboration to control how users collaborate on media, transfer media ownership, and find media based on ownership and collaboration.
Before users can be added as co-editors, co-publishers, co-viewers, or Webcast moderators, they must have an application user. Users can be created automatically when they sign in to the Content Hub, legacy Video Portal, or LMS integration.
For instructions on adding collaborators to media, see Add and remove collaborators on your media.
Configure
1. Go to your Configuration Management console, and click the MediaCollaboration module. You can also navigate directly: https://{your_site_URL}/admin/config/tab/mediaCollaboration.
The MediaCollaboration page displays.
2. Configure the following:
mediaCollaborationEnabled - Set to 'Yes' to enable the module. This allows users to add and manage co-editors, co-publishers, co-viewers, and Webcast moderators, and change media ownership.
If you change this setting to 'No' after collaborators have been added to media, those collaborators will no longer be able to view, edit, or publish the media based on their collaboration permissions.
changeOwnerEnabled - Set to Yes to allow users to change the media owner. This field is only available when mediaCollaborationEnabled is set to Yes.
When you transfer ownership of media, you lose access to it unless you add yourself as a collaborator before transferring ownership.
collaborationEnabledInUploadForm - Set to 'Yes' to allow users to add co-editors, co-publishers, co-viewers, and Webcast moderators from the media upload form.
This setting doesn't apply to sites that useTheming.
showInSearch - Set to 'Yes' to allow users to filter search results by ownership and collaboration.
excludeGroups - Enter the user or group IDs that you want to exclude from the Add a Collaborator and Change Media Owner searches. Separate multiple IDs with commas. All other users and groups remain available in the search.
3. Click Save.
