Media Portal user management FAQ

This document covers issues related to Media Portal (MP) user management. For example, find out about Media Portal group permissions model, and email-to-user functionality.

By design, built assets like SpinSet, MediaSet, VideoSet, and so on, aren't visible to a Media Portal (MP) user. However, if you have an asset like image/video, it is visible to the MP user if it has read/write/delete permissions.

The SPS Help contains a good description of the user roles. You can get to the Media Portal roles by going to Help > Help Contents > Media Portal > Media Portal User Roles. Here is the direct link:
