Overview

Every Connecter Suite Workspace can have one Web Catalog. This feature allows you to share the previews (excluding the interactive ones) of your cataloged assets (tagged, rated, starred, with custom previews, etc.) with Partners. 

A Partner is someone who isn’t a part of your team and can’t open your Workspace, for example, a client or a collaborator. They can only access the previews of the assets shared with them in the Web Catalog. Partners aren’t counted as members of your Connecter Suite subscription plan, so you can have as many Partners as you need. 

Setup

Team Admins set up the Web Catalog feature from the Team Portal.

1. Log in to Team Portal as Admin.
2. Go to the Workspaces tab.
3. Go to the Features button of a chosen Workspace and select the Web Catalog option:
   • Give a name for your Storage provider.
   • Choose a storage provider or local drive (where the previews of your assets will be hosted).
