Share an Asset Type

You share an asset type to allow other content administrators to manage the asset type itself. Sharing an asset type is like sharing any file or folder. Just select the asset type, click Members, and choose members you want to be able to manage the asset type. You can share with individuals or with groups.

You control users ability to use an asset type through settings in the repository. First, the asset type must be associated with the repository. By default, that allows a user with access to the repository to view assets of the associated type. If the user has the contributor role for the repository they can also create, upload, edit, or delete assets of that type. You can further refine access to particular asset types with granular permissions.
