Sharing a Playlist

Let a colleague or designer edit a playlist without joining your team.

About

Share a playlist with someone outside your team, like a colleague in another team or a freelance designer, so they can design its slides. They edit the playlist; you keep control of your screens, groups and schedules, and decide whether they may publish. To give someone access to everything, add them to your team instead.

Get Started

Share a playlist with a person

  • Go to Playlists and click Share Playlist on the playlist
  • Enter the person’s e-mail address

If the address doesn’t have a Play account yet, we e-mail them an invitation to sign up. Once they sign up with that address, the playlist shows in their Playlists.

Share a playlist with another team

  • Click Share Playlist on the playlist
  • Choose a team you own or are a member of

Let them publish, or review their changes yourself

  • When you share, choose whether the person or team may publish

Only allow it if you trust their content and don’t need to review it. If they can’t publish, you get an e-mail when they change the playlist, so you can review and publish it yourself.

Options

FAQ

Can I share a playlist with another team?

Yes, with a team you own or are a member of, or with a single person.

Should I share a playlist or add the person to my team?

Share when they should only work on that playlist, or already belong to another team. Add them to your team when they should see and manage everything.

Can the person I share with change locked objects?

Only if you allow it: turn off Sharee unlock in the playlist’s settings to keep them out. See Locking Objects.
