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.
"Personal" and "Shared" workspaces
Personal workspace:
Every user has a private workspace called "Personal" 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 other users based on assigned roles.
Each shared workspace also includes a "Workspace logs", which logs user activity in the workspace.
Users should ensure that materials uploaded to shared workspaces are in line with the expectations of their supervisors.
Note that "Workspace Logs" is currently not available on mobile.
Roles in workspaces (Mobile Version)
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 other users and make changes to workspace settings.
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.
There must always be at least one administrator assigned to a workspace at all times. Consequently, if a user is the sole administrator, they cannot remove themselves from the workspace without appointing another user as an administrator.
By default, workspace owners are set as Administrators
Contributor:
Can upload and edit media within the workspace.
Viewer:
Has view-only access to the workspace and cannot make any changes
