Assign Company and PR Group Access

Company access and PR group access are separate from role permissions. Each track has a setup page (catalog) and an access page (user toggles).

Prerequisites: DAM users exist (Maintain DAM users).

TrackCatalogAssignment matrix
CompaniesCompany Setup (/missioncontrol/security/company-setup)Company Access (/missioncontrol/security/company-access)
PR groupsPR Group Setup (/missioncontrol/security/pr-group-setup)PR Group Access (/missioncontrol/security/pr-group-access)

Skip a track if your team does not use that Vista access model.


Shared pattern

  1. Load the catalog on the Setup page (Add / Import / Refresh).
  2. Assign users on the Access page (toggle matrix; saves immediately).
  3. Export or sync that domain on Security Exports & Syncs.

Setup-page Refresh updates the DAM catalog from Vista Configs / cache. It is not Run Sync on the export page.
