Closed Access is an option used to restrict access to all or a specific content. By enabling this option you are required to have a consumption token.

To enable this option for all your content we must go to the Settings module and choose the Access Restrictions option:

Once you have accessed it, look for the "Closed Access" option and check the "Enable" checkbox. Once you have done so, simply save the changes:

It should be noted that when you choose this option, you are applying these permissions to all the content available in your account.

If you do not want to apply this option for a certain Media, you must search for it and deactivate it for that video. In this way all your content will have "Closed Access" applied, except for the Media that you did not configure with this option.

Note: The generation of access tokens must be requested from the backend of your application or CMS, and must be implemented by your development area. Contact them and your account administrator to do it.
