Once you have groups created in your IdP via either of the above methods, you can also see them in Vimeo and give those groups permission to access specific folders and subfolders with either “Contributor” or “Viewer” access. Folders can include multiple groups with different access permissions. Like individuals, groups can be given access to a folder by either the Owner, Admins, or a Contributor with “Folder admin” access.
To add a group to a folder, go to the Library, select the folder, and click Share in the upper right corner.
Search the group name and select what level of permissions you’d like the group to have:
- If a group is given Viewer access on a folder, all users in the group will be given Viewer permissions, which allows them to watch and comment on videos in that folder.
- If a group is given Contributor access on a folder, individuals who are Viewers at the account level will still only have Viewer permissions, while users who are Contributors at the account level will be Contributors and can adjust settings for videos in that folder.
After you’ve chosen the group permission, click Invite.
Note: Unlike for individuals, an email will not be sent when giving access to a group. Members of the group will have access immediately and do not need to respond to an invite.
Once you invite the group to a folder, it will appear within the Share modal alongside its permissions.
When a team member logs into the home page, they can see the folders and groups they have access to, along with other folders they have access to via individual permissions and folders shared to the "All" group, which is created by default.
