4.3.3 Sharing a Catalog
The key question when deciding to share a catalog is whether you need to share catalog items with all or a subset of the users in your organization. For instance, sharing a catalog could make media files available to all users in your organization. A more restricted use case might involve a group of individuals in an organization who are working on a specific application or operating system and want to share a media file among themselves.
To access a shared catalog, users need the View Private and Shared Catalogs permission. This permission is not assigned to all roles by default.
