### What's the best way for me to manage asset sharing?
{table:class=tutorial-bullets}|  | 
| --- | --- |
|{videotime:id=assetsOnboardingSharingAssets3 :min=5 :sec=55 :player=cld} | Here are a few questions to ask yourself when deciding what's the best way to manage and share your assets: Who should have access to which assets? Set up your folder structure and content accordingly, because user permissions to assets are determined on the folder level.Can I group users according to their need to access similar assets? Create user groups to simplify granting permission to asset folders.What are my requirements when sharing assets publicly? You can share time-limited public links to collections, restricted to downloading assets using selected transformation templates, for security. If you want to upgrade security as well as the look and feel of your shared asset websites, you can use Smint.io's brand portal solution.
