Instead of having one user or a small group handle all download requests, you can assign individual download approvers for each watermarked asset. This allows for a more balanced workload and ensures that only authorized users can download the assets.
Adding watermarks to your assets restricts access to only those with proper permissions. Users without the necessary rights can request a download, which can be reviewed by administrators or designated download approvers. This system prevents a single user or a small group from handling all approvals, lightening the workload for administrators and ensuring that the content is reviewed by knowledgeable approvers.
When a download request is submitted, the assigned download approver is notified via email to review and approve the request in the Waiting Room.
