Wistia’s custom permissions, available for all Premium users, are designed to give you maximum control over your content. With granular permission options and an endless array of combinations, you can decide exactly what access people have to each folder of content.

How does it work?

  1. For Premium users, when you go to a folder, head to the Share button in the top right and select Invite collaborators
  2. From there, select an existing user/group, or type in the information for a new user and click the dropdown for permission access levels
  3. In the dropdown, select Custom permissions and select any of the following options

With the addition of the Edit custom permission, you now have a full suite of options for how your collaborators can manage content - giving them independence while also maintaining control.
