Structural Elements of the Media Edition

The main structural elements of the Media Edition are:

• Media Edition Dashboard
  The dashboard is the central access point to Media Edition for users. When a user is added to the configuration as an app user, a dashboard is automatically generated and placed on the “Home” screen as a widget (“Media Edition”).
• Configuration
  General settings that apply to magazines are configured here. You must be an app administrator to edit the configuration. To access the configuration, navigate to "Home" in the Media Edition dashboard and then click the "Go to Configuration" action.
• Workrooms
  Workrooms are used for the structured management of digital content and for defining access rights. Magazines can also be defined within workrooms. Additionally, assets, topics, and contents can be created in workrooms. They thus serve, at the highest level, to structure and separate your organization’s data. For example, a workroom may be visible only to a specific editorial team.  
• Magazines
  Access rights can also be assigned to magazines. Similar to workrooms, assets, topics, and contents can be created within the context of magazines, which are then only available to users authorized for that specific magazine. Additionally, the magazine allows for the creation of issues.
• Issues
  An issue is the actual issue of a magazine. Here, layouts, contents, and media assets are compiled into publishable content.
