Share assets across Divisions with global permissions Updated January 13, 2025 21:55 Global assets allow Showpad content managers (administrators and Promoted Members) to share content from a source Division to other Divisions in just a few clicks. This is a huge timesaver and allows for more centralization and controlled localization of content. Yes, you can keep all content in the existing global Division and update all assets there, but this is a task that only administrators can do. To save time and centralize content management, we recommend using Promoted Members. For example, an English-written document exists in the US Division and can be shared with the EMEA Division by a Promoted Member without interaction with the administrator. It's important to know that you can make assets globally available in your Divisions, but tags are added separately and are not transferred automatically.

These Divisions will act as source Divisions, and assets in these Divisions can be set to global. That means they are available as read-only in all other Divisions. It's not possible to share with individual Divisions. In other words, assets are shared globally in all Divisions. To set a global Division, open Admin Settings. Navigate to Divisions. Then select a Division from which content can be shared globally. Next, click the gear icon, and choose Edit. Enable the checkbox: This division can share selected content globally. Global content can be viewed (but not edited) by all other divisions. Click Update. Navigate to the global Division's library to start sharing content globally.
