This article applies to Enterprise users and provides a step-by-step guide to setting up a Team Organization, creating Networks (collections of shows), and inviting users while managing roles and permissions.
- Organizations: Collection of Shows & Networks
- Networks: Collection of Shows (Not required in Organizations)
- Show: An individual podcastI. What Are Organizations?
Organizations are a collection of Shows & Networks that can be set up by the Organization Owner to share features and data with multiple users.
Features That Can Be Shared Within an Organization Include:
Shows & Episodes
Organization Team Members
Use Cases of Organizations:
Organizations were created because many of our customers are producers of several shows that hire groups of podcasters, producers, ad ops personnel, and editors, all of whom need access to the same shows.
Organizations are useful if you have a team made up of the same users who need access to all shows.
How To Set Up An Organization:
Sign in as the Organization Owner (limited to one per account)
Click on the drop-down menu in the top-right corner next to the Profile Icon
Click on the gear icon in the drop-down menu
Locate ‘Organization Settings’ in the Sidebar
Enter the Organization Name
Upload Logo
Enter Organization Email Address
Click ‘Save’
II. What Are Networks?
Networks are an internal collection of shows that belong to an organization. Networks make it easy to assign permissions to a set of shows that a team regularly works on at once.
Use Cases of Networks:
Your organization owns several sports podcasts, so you could create a Network for each league, sport, or team, etc.
You are a business with different divisions that specialize in podcasts about different topics, so you could create a Network for each.
You have a production team that needs to access these resources on a group of shows, but not on all of the shows in your Organization. You can group those shows into a Network, and assign access to only that Network.
How To Create A New Network:
Go to ‘Organization Settings’ (click on the drop-down menu in the top-right next to the profile icon)
Select ‘Networks’ in the left sidebar.
Click on the ‘Create Network’ button on the top-right
Enter a title for your Network
Check the boxes next to each show you want to add to the Network
Click on the ‘Create Network’ button in the bottom right
Click on ‘Networks’ in the left sidebar to view and manage all Networks
III. How To Invite Users
Go to ‘Organization Settings' or ‘Team Members’
Click on ‘Users’ in the left sidebar
Click on ‘Invite’ in the top-right corner
Select the Role in the drop-down menu
Enter an email address or multiple email addresses with each separated by a comma
Click on ‘Invite Users’ to send an email for the user to confirm and gain access to the Organization.
- For Network and Show level users, you will also need
to select the networks and shows that you want the user to be
invited to.
- Selecting a Network for a network-level role will permit
the user to access all shows in that network at the permission level
selected.
- Selecting one or many shows for a show-level role will permit
the user to access the shows selected at the permission level
selected.
