Users with sub-account admin access in Canvas inherit limited sub-account admin permissions in Studio. To enable elevated sub-account admin access on the Media Management interface (e.g. enable sub-account admins to access user libraries), click the Studio Admin in Sub-Accounts option [3].
To remove existing admin permissions, select the None option [4].
To save changes, click the Update Details button [5].
Note: Studio Admin access gives users access to all areas of the institution's Studio account. It is recommended that users with sub-account admin status in Canvas only be given Studio Admin in Sub-Accounts status for their own Canvas sub-accounts in Studio.
