How do I review pending uploads as a Validator?

💻 Environment/Context

  • Upload validation

 

In order for you to view and approve pending uploads, the Validation > Can view page and Validation > Can approve page permissions must be enabled on your account.

The Validation page only shows when your account has Validator access and there are uploads waiting for validation.

If you're unable to follow any of the steps below, kindly reach out to your admin or refer to the Account Type Permissions Overview article for more information.

 

 

❓ Issue/Question

  • How do I approve pending uploads?

 

👌 Resolution/Answer

  • Navigate to Validation
  • Click View to see the media waiting for validation

 

  • The validation page has these options:
    • Session tags: the tags added automatically to the media when it’s validated
    • Manage access: manage the access settings, such as privacy, embargo and expiration dates
    • Validate all: validate the whole session once you’re done editing, deleting and managing the media
    • Validate: validate a single media
    • Edit: edit the media before validation
    • Delete: delete the media waiting for validation
    • Download: download the media
    • Filter: filter between validated and non-validated media

 

  • Select the media and validate it one by one or in bulk

  • Once validated, the media leaves the validation page and is published to the collection
