LP4: Create an Asset Library

Introduction

The purpose of this guide is to assist domain admins in creating asset libraries. Asset Libraries can be administered by a user with Domain Admin security rights.  

How-to

1. From the Navigation Bar, click the Admin button to display the Admin menu, then expand 'Assets & Libraries' and click 'Create Library' (or click 'Asset Libraries' and then '+New Asset Library').

2. You will be presented with a Create Library form.

• Enter an appropriate Display Name so the library identifies clearly the assets it contains.
• The Library ID must be unique. It is automatically generated but can be edited.
• Enter a Description for the Library if required. This is visible only on this screen by administrators.

3. Access to Asset Libraries is controlled at the User Role level. Add a User Role by selecting a User Role from the Add Role list and clicking the  button.

4. The User Role will be added below. Select one of the available permission levels and click 'Save'.

Note: to remove a User Roles permission to access the library click the button.

Note: Users with the Domain Admin security level have Contribute access to all Asset Libraries in their Domain regardless of permission settings for individual libraries.
