    2. Click Assets.
    3. Click More Actions . 
    4. Select Open Libraries from the drop-down menu.

Viewing and Managing Design Libraries

View all of your libraries in one place, whether it's libraries that you created or libraries your team shares with you. You can open libraries to see their contents, duplicate and delete libraries.

To view and manage your libraries:

  1. Click Tools at the top of Editor X.
  2. Click Libraries.
  3. Click the More Actions icon  under the relevant library.
  4. Select an option:

Sharing a Design Library

When creating a library, you can decide whether to keep a design library private or share its assets with others.
The access link to your library allows anyone with an Editor X site to add the assets to their account. In addition, if you're using a Team Account, the library becomes visible to all teammates once you turn on sharing. 

To share a design library:

  1. Access the library you want to share:
    1. Click Tools at the top of Editor X.
    2. Click Libraries.
  2. Click the More Actions icon  under the relevant library.
  3. Click Open Library.
  4. Enable the Turn sharing on toggle to make this library available for sharing.
  5. Share the library with people in one of the following ways: 
    • Send an email: Enter the person's email address and click the Send icon . They'll receive an email from Editor X with a link to your library. 
    • Copy the link: Click to copy the direct link to your computer's clipboard.
