Per default, sponsors access the content where their brand has been tagged, however it can be customised to give them wider access to your media library

Here, the users associated with Pepsi would also access every content tagged with 'training'

You can apply your tag access rules to all users associated with the external group at once

The 'Media' tab gives you a preview of the files available to this external group

You can search in the 'Media' tab as well

You can easily invite new users associated with this specific external group

Alternatively, you can generate a sign up link and send it to the users for them to auto-register

Your user is now listed in the external group

You can easily disable a sponsor if you want to make it inactive

We recommend disabling an external group over deleting it
