Manage a Collection's Users and Groups

Manage a collection's users and groups on Collections pages of both the Admin interface and Server user interface.

Note

For versions 2021.4 and newer, you can't add private studios to a collection. To prepare for this change, view private studios in the Collections section. Here, you can view or delete studios. Also, check which users to add. You can add those users from the private studio individually or add a user group to a collection. To learn more, go to Manage a Collection's Users and Groups.
