Kaltura: Requesting Access to Another User's Streaming Media Files

Summary

This article will explain the process for requesting access to streaming media files from another user.

 

How-To

Users who request access to another instructor’s streaming media files need to have approval from the instructor of that course. A request to reassign streaming media files along with written approval (email) from the owner of the media should be sent through a support case. If the instructor is no longer employed by the university, the user must make a request through the Account Management System to gain access to the content.
