To share any of these objects with another user, you must be either the **Owner** of the object or you must have been assigned the **Admin** *role* for the object. For most scenarios, users will want to share apps with one another because apps are built to have the precise set of tiles needed for a given use case. ## How to Share Sharing is possible anywhere the

button is found. Here are the places you can find the

button for each object type: | Object Type | Share Button Location\[s] | What is Shared | | ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | App |

button, click **Add User** on the top right of the sharing panel. Here, you can enter either: 1. The user's Motion username 2. The user's email address that is associated with Motion

After a matching user is identified, choose the roles the user should have:

For more information on what permissions are given with different roles, see [Roles and Permissions](https://api-docs.motion.cloud/technical-notes/roles-and-permissions) in our API docs. {% hint style="warning" %} Assigning the **Admin** role will give the user the ability to share and un-share the object with other users. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Multiple roles can be assigned to a single user simultaneously, and different roles may come with overlapping permissions. Therefore, e.g., it is not necessary to assign any additional roles to a user if they have the **Admin** role because the **Admin** role gives that user all permissions. {% endhint %}
