Manage permissions in Media Time

Define permissions to control who can view, upload, or manage media in Media Time.

Updated over 2 months ago

About

Media Time provides a flexible permission system that allows administrators to control usage according to their needs. Permissions can be configured to define who is allowed to:

  • Upload content

  • Access external connectors like Vimeo or Streamio

  • View the Media Time repository

To review the default system permissions, go to Site administration > Users > Permissions > Capability overview and filter the capabilities by "mediatime". Review these settings and adjust them to match your specific requirements.

Teachers can override these permissions within their own courses to customize access as needed.

Tip: As part of our Enterprise solution, we’re happy to support customers with individual permission configurations tailored to their needs.
