When download requests are enabled for a Kits and Portals, visitors must request permission to download Assets.

If you have set your download requests to require approval, you will need to review and approve or deny each request.

Only Admins and Content Managers can manage Download Requests.

Reviewing requests

When a download request is submitted that requires approval:

  1. A notification will be sent to Space Admin

  2. Go to the Users page

  3. Open the Download Requests tab

  4. Find the pending request

  5. Review the request details:

    • Who requested it (email)

    • Which kit or portal the request is for

    • Which Asset(s)

    • Any message they included

  6. Click Approve or Deny

Approving requests

When you approve:

  • The requester receives an email

  • They can download the requested Asset(s)

  • The approval may be time-limited

  • You can revoke an approval at any time to stop further downloads

Denying requests
