Workspace

Collaborate on videos with your team in a shared workspace.

📘

Workspace is an Enterprise Plan feature.

A workspace is a shared environment where team members can collaborate on videos, folders, and templates. All workspace members can view and work on content in real time.

Folders

Organize videos into folders and control access with folder sharing permissions.

Folder actions

Click the three dots next to a folder to:

  • New folder: Create a subfolder
  • Collaborate: Share with specific users and set permission levels
  • Rename folder: Change the folder name
  • Move to: Move to another folder or workspace
  • Remove: Delete the folder (available in Trash for 30 days)

Folder sharing permissions

Share folders with specific users and set permission levels:

  • No access (workspace level): Private, only accessible to invited users
  • Commenter: View and comment only
  • Editor: View, comment, edit, and create content
  • Full Access: Complete control including delete, move, publish, and share

Permissions propagate from parent folders to subfolders and files unless manually overridden. Files can have broader access than their parent folder.

Share a folder

Click the 3-dot icon at the top-left of a folder and select the Collaborate option to:

  • Invite users by email
  • Set permission levels (Commenter, Editor, or Full Access)
  • Configure workspace-level access

External guests can only access folders explicitly shared with them.
