    3. Can download uploads.

In the studio

The approval section sits on the Edits page, against each edit you create. Depending on your role, you will see different options as outlined above.

Notifications

Currently, users are not notified via email when you request approval or make a change. Users are highlighted at each stage and we find it best to contact them on your existing messaging platform such as Teams or Slack.
