04 - Updating Shared Content

To update a library or design shared with team members, you should have access over these in the shared workspace.

‌Updating a shared design/library

If you have access to a shared workspace, you will see all shared files in your File Manager. To edit a project or a file, you first need to move it to your local workspace. This is automatically done by the Edit command.

Here, you will switch to a user machine that has the librarian privilege.

    When you edit a project, the libraries folder, or a file, it is automatically locked in the shared workspace.
