From the Manage Users tab , select +New User button.
- Enter at minimum the required fields which have red text*

Build Your Own User Lists
If you’re more than a view-only user with the ability to share your own files, you can make user lists. To do so, go to your Users .
- Select User Lists at the top
- Select the green New User List button to add a new User List
- Name the list
- Select +, to add your desired recipients
- Save List
You can create as many user lists as you need in any combination of users.
Using Your User Lists
Once you’ve created your user lists, they will appear in the dropdown recipients list when sharing packages. Put your cursor in the Add Recipient field, and the lists will appear first in the dropdown. Below is an example.
User Roles
Every user needs to be assigned to a user role. To create a set of new user roles for an upcoming production, you’ll need to create (#) roles as decided by your team. For example, below are a set of standard roles you could create for each production:
DAILIES RECIPIENTS
All view-only dailies recipients should be assigned to a user role called Dailies Viewers. This role has been created as a part of the system setup. Just add view-only users to this role. You do not need to create it for every production.
DAILIES VENDORS
When adding a new production, create a new Production Name_Dailies Vendor role. To create this role the first time, save the Template_Vendors role to your templates. For the first role and all others moving forward, do the following:
- Create new role from template
- Name it Production Name_Dailies Vendor
- Scroll down and select the Production
- Save the role
- Select the User Access Rule
- Go to the User View Rule
- Select the Production
- Double check the Department is set to Editorial
- Save the rule
PRODUCTION EDITORIAL TEAMS
When adding a new production, create a new Production Name_Editorial role. To create this role the first time, save the Template_Production Editorial role to your templates. For the first role and all others moving forward, do the following:
- Create new role from template
- Name it Editorial_Production Name
- Scroll down and select the Production
- Save the role
- Select View Access Rule
- Go to the Production View Rule
- Select the Production
- Save
- Select the User Access Rule
- Go to the User View Rule
- Select the Production
- Save
If you need a user role that doesn’t have a template, contact [client internal email].
