Associate an Asset Type with a Repository

You must associate an asset type with a repository to make it available for use. After you do so, users with at least the contributor role will be able to use the asset type to create assets in that repository.

You can associate an asset type with a repository when you create the repository or you can edit the repository to add the asset type.

To edit a repository to add an asset type:

1. Sign in as a repository administrator in your browser and click Content under Administration in the left navigation menu.
2. Choose Repositories from the drop-down list.
3. Open the repository you want to associate the asset type with.
4. Choose the asset types to be used with the repository. Asset types must be shared with you to be used. If someone else created a asset type that you want to associate with this repository, make sure it’s shared with you so you can use it.

   Note:

   You can't remove asset types that are associated with connectors selected for this repository.
