# Uploader Settings for Group

This feature allows Admins to customize what group members see when **uploading assets** to the HIVO. These settings help streamline the interface and ensure users only provide the necessary information.

👉 To configure and activate any of the sections below, you must switch the **toggle to "On"(blacked out**). If the **toggle is "Off" (greyed out)**, the settings for that section will not be applied to the group, and the system will use genneral settings instead.

#### 1. Uploader Fields

This option allows you to override the default information fields shown to **users during the asset upload process.**

* **Configurable fields include:** Asset descriptions (such as Name, Asset Tags, Folder Path, Production Date, Sensitive Date, etc.), Asset Permissions, and Asset Approval.
* **Precedence Rule:** If a user belongs to multiple groups, the system prioritizes fields set as Visible and Non-required.

#### 2. Metadata Fields

You can control which **custom metadata fields appear when a user uploads files**, such as Description, Copyright, License,etc. To ensure accurate asset categorization from the very first step.

* In addition to system Metadata Fields, Admins can create custom Metadata Fields within the [**Metadata Settings**](https://support.hivo.co/client-profile/client-profile-settings/asset-and-metadata-management/metadata-settings)**.**
* **Precedence Rule:** Similar to Uploader Fields, Visible and Non-required fields take precedence if a user is in multiple groups with conflicting settings.

#### 3. Automation

This feature allows you to override the Automation Options for a specific User Group.

* **Available Options:** Examples include Caption Prediction, Generate Transcript for video/audio assets, Face Detection, etc.
* **Precedence Rule:** If there are multiple settings across different Groups, values set to Visible and Default Enabled take precedence.
