🤝Sharing / Workspaces

Want to share media with team members or users from other agencies? Pinpoint's "Workspaces" feature allows users to establish a shared environment where multiple users can upload and view media securely.

"My" and "Shared" workspaces

My workspace:

  • Every user has a private workspace called "My workspace" and media stored here are only accessible by the user.

  • This workspace cannot be shared with other users.

Shared workspaces:

  • Shared workspaces can be created by users for collaboration with others.

  • Allows users to upload, edit, and share media with different groups of users.

  • Administrators can also assign appropriate roles to individual users.

  • Each includes a "Workspace logs", which logs user activity in the workspace.

Roles in workspaces

Pinpoint allows administrators to set specific levels of permissions, based on these defined roles:

Administrator:

  • Has full control over the workspace, including the ability to manage others and make changes to workspace settings.

  • There must always be at least one administrator present in the workspace at all times. Consequently, if a user is the sole administrator, they cannot remove themselves from the group without appointing another user as an administrator.

  • Administrators can also modify the roles of other administrators including themselves in the workspace. Once forfeited, all administrator privileges for that workspace will be revoked unless reassigned.

Contributor:

  • Can upload and edit media within the workspace.

Viewer:

  • Has view-only access to the workspace and cannot make any changes
