Each new Scaleflex DAM account comes with a token for a project. Each token combines a storage container to store assets and a CDN distribution to deliver optimized assets over CDN worldwide. An account can have multiple tokens to suit different projects within an organisation, which is called multi-tenancy.

Whether you use one or multiple tokens for your projects, Scaleflex DAM's multi-tenancy allows you to manage all use cases across various tokens or projects through a unified interface.

Company-wide vs project-wide users

Users can be created at the company level or project level.

A hierarchy can be created within each token or project, and users and teams can be given access permissions to single or multiple tokens.

• Company-level: grants access to all projects

• Project-level: grants access to a project or selected projects, but not all within the company
