About Shared Channel Widgets

When you share a Channel widget with another user of the platform, a copy of this widget is created. This copy contextualizes the content as follows:

Sources of the Original Widget Description
Public 3DSwym Communities The copy always displays all the content from the public 3DSwym communities.
Private and Secret 3DSwym Communities The copy only displays content from the private and secret 3DSwym communities that the user whom the widget was shared with is a member of.

When the copy cannot display content from a private or a secret 3DSwym community, the following icon and error message appear on the copy: e You do not have access to at least 1 community. Check Sources for more details.
Industry Libraries The copy always displays the content from the sources contained in the Industry Libraries.
