Group Storage Folders
When making a Group you have the option to create a Group Storage Folder to hold Group assets and member uploads. This Folder can be viewed or edited by Mediagraph Admins, Global Content Managers and Group Content Managers.
Group Folders are a great way to make certain assets in the File Vault accessible to members without account-wide admin privileges. The only content in the File Vault Group Content Managers can see is their Group's Folder.
What happens when you make a Group Storage Folder?
Mediagraph will automatically create an Organizer named for the Group and a Folder named “Group Uploads”.
- All Group member contributions will live in the "Group Uploads" folder.
- You can create as many additional Folders inside the Group Organizer as you need.
The Group symbol denotes this is a designated Group Storage Folder.
Creating a Group Storage Folder
We strongly recommend creating a Group Storage Folder when you first make a Group. If you need to go back and add a Group Folder to an existing Group, follow these steps:
- Go to Manage > Groups and click Edit next to the desired Group.
- Click the accordion Add Storage Folders.
- Click the accordion Create Group Storage Folder
- Check the box "Enable dedicated Storage Folder for this Group".
- Click Update Group. Go to the File Vault to see your new Group Folder.
Important: If you create a Group contribution request you must create a Group Storage Folder so member uploads have a destination.
