Share Content
Learn how to share content across collections.
There are two main options when sharing content across collections. You can create a complete copy or create a shortcut that references the original. Creating a complete copy will create copies of all the files related to the asset to the other collection, whereas, creating a shortcut will create a reference to the original asset in the source collection.
