What are Palettes?

Palettes in Avail are a simple yet powerful way to organize and collaborate on project content.
Users can easily create new palettes, name them for clarity, and add content from any channel through right-click actions. Multiple items can be added at once for faster setup.

Palettes also support team collaboration. By managing users, team members can gain edit access, enabling them to modify or delete palette content as needed. Importantly, these actions do not impact the original source content, ensuring data remains secure and organized.

By integrating palettes into daily workflows, teams can streamline content management, improve communication, and increase productivity across projects.
