Add Library teams (separate teams) to your Library

Updated

With our Library teams feature, the Admin on your PhotoShelter account can divide your Library to give different teams (or departments) within your organization their own area (partition) in the account. Individuals can be given Editor access to one or more teams, but only have access to the teams they are a part of. Team Editors can upload, create and share containers, edit metadata, and delete files but only in their assigned teams. Please contact your Customer Success Manager to add this feature to your subscription.
