How to Distribute “My Solutions” to a Solutions Subscriber

Providing a user Solutions Distribution Key to another WalkMe Editor user grants the user permission to access, download, and modify any Solution Templates created under the “My Solutions” category of the Solutions Gallery Content Solutions. This includes any future Solution Template created by the Solutions Provider.

Modifications made to a downloaded Solution Template's WalkMe content by a Solutions Subscriber will not modify the Provider's source Solution Template's WalkMe content.

Solution Templates downloaded by a Solution Subscriber are a duplicate instance of the Solution Provider's original content.
