## Content Studio Agency Management

Content Studio admins can view and add Agency partners to the Content Studio and assign external users to specific agency groups for content collaboration.

An Agency refers to an external Content Agency that a customer may be working with for new content. Assigning Users to Agencies is optional. Assignment to an Agency further refines the user access, which is determined by their assigned Team, to just the content that was created by their Agency.

When users are not assigned to Agencies, access is determined solely by their assigned Team.
