Feature library permissions

Feature libraries are a repository of sequences that can be used to automatically annotate features across multiple sequences with the same name, color, and type. A feature library can be owned by an organization or a user. Users can only view or edit libraries they have permission to access.

Feature library access policies

The table below describes the three default access policies that can be used for feature libraries.
