Adding and managing team members
Team members are additional users who operate your account in your name and under your responsibility. They are managed from Avatar / My team.
Team members’ access can be restricted to specific parts of your account. Note that these rights are permissive, with the objective of allowing team members to work effectively with as little friction as possible, and it is essential that access is provided only to trusted persons.
The account holder can do everything allowed by the subscription. Only he/she is able to add and manage team members, manage the account subscriptions, accept the Terms and Conditions, create/delete media libraries and websites.
You can add team members simply to perform specific tasks on your images and website -- or you can set up multiple media libraries and websites and give different accesses to different team members.
Media libraries access rights
This set of access rights allows the team member to access your media library (or libraries) to the extent you determine.
Like a virtual hard disk, a media library is the repository where files are uploaded (and from there, optionally published to your website).
The rights apply equally to all files in the media library. If further segregation is required, for example if some team members should not see all files, you can create different media libraries.
For example, photo agencies might create a media library per photographer, while brands might create a media library per department and creative agencies one per project. Please refer to the documentation on media libraries for further details!
A team member can be given access to several media libraries, with different access rights for each of them.
Every team member has their own access rights for each library
The following rights are available:
Base
Allows read-only view on all media in the library, downloading of originals, read-only view on all collections and smart collections.
Allows access to the files of an order which ID or link is known (for example if the order notification email is shared).
Write
