Managing asset reviewers

Reviewers are responsible for checking assets before they are released and requesting changes if required.

Only assets that are in a project collection can have reviewers, and only members of the project can be reviewers.

Modify the reviewers for the asset if you need to add or remove any reviewers from the asset review.

Tip
  • An asset review is started when the asset status is changed from OPENED to another status, typically IN REVIEW. See Using the Kanban board.

  • For instructions on reviewing an asset, see Reviewing assets.

  • If a user is removed from a project, they are removed as an asset reviewer from all assets in the project.

The actual reviewers on an asset depend on:

  • The default reviewers assigned to the project the asset is in. See Managing default project reviewers.

  • Only for projects that contain a repository: The default reviewers assigned to the repository the asset is in. This takes precedence over the default project reviewers. See Managing default repository reviewers.

  • The default reviewers assigned to the collection the asset is in. This takes precedence over the default project reviewers. See Managing default collection reviewers.

  • Reviewers assigned directly to the asset. This takes precedence over the default project and collection reviewers.

To add or remove an asset reviewer:

  1. Open the asset in a project. If the asset is already open outside of a project, click Projects and then click the project the asset is in. See Viewing asset project information.

    You can only view the list of reviewers if the asset is opened in a project and an asset review is in progress for the asset.

  2. Click Manage reviewers.

    The list of asset reviewers is displayed:

    • To add a project member as a reviewer for the asset, use the Search box and click the user name to add them as a reviewer.

    • To remove a reviewer from the asset, click X next to their name in the reviewer list.
