# Unqork Library Elements

UDesignerClassic Designer

**Library Elements** are shared [modules](/v1/docs/what-is-a-module) and [Data Collections](/v1/docs/data-collections) available to one or more [applications](/v1/docs/introduction-to-unqork-applications) in an [environment](/v1/docs/environment-administration). Creators assign access and usage to a shared element by specifying if it's available to the entire environment, a specific workspace, or application.

> [!NOTE]
> Library elements are not available with versioned applications.

To learn more about Library Elements, click on the buttons below:

### Navigating the Library

The Library Elements page displays a list of elements shared in the environment. From this page, Creators can view shared modules or Data Collections, and access each shared element's settings.

> [!TIP]
> Library Elements have purple tiles, versus the traditional gray.

To add an element to the Library:

1. Open the workspace that contains your element.
2. From the Elements list, navigate to the element you want to add to the Library.
3. From the element tile's ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/ellipsis_grey_icon(6).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ellipsis)** menu, select Share to Library.

4. Select the environment or workspaces where you want to share the element.
5. Click **Share**.

When you open the Library Elements page, your element is now in the list of Library Elements.

## Sharing and Unsharing a Library Element

At any time, you can control your Library Elements at the workspace and environment level. But ensure you have the correct RBAC permission. You need the correct permission to make edits in the **Access & Usage** pop-up modal.

> [!WARNING]
> It's always important to be careful when changing or promoting Library Elements. Because you can add Library Elements to other workspaces and applications, changes can break those applications.

### Sharing a Library Element

To edit an element's shared locations:

1. From the **Librar****y** drop-down, select **Library Elements**.
2. Locate your Library Element.
3. In the element's tile, click **A****ccess & Usage**.
4. Set **Edit** to ![A toggle switch indicating an on/off state for a user interface element.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/Group 1.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ON)**.

### Unsharing a Library Element

If you no longer want to share a Library Element, you can remove it from the Library. But, ensure you disconnect your Library Element from your applications before unsharing. If the element is only connected to one application, it lives there when you unshare it. If it's connected to more, you need to unshare it and choose where it should exist.

To unshare a Library Element from the Library:

1. From the **Librar****y** drop-down, select **Library Elements**.
2. Locate the element that you want to unshare.
3. Click **Access & Usage** in the element tile.
4. Set **Edit** to ![A toggle switch indicating an on/off state for a user interface element.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/Group 1.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ON)****.**

To delete an element, unshare it from your applications. Then, follow these steps:

1. From the **Librar****y** drop-down, select **Library Elements**.
2. Locate the element that you want to delete.
3. From the element tile's ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/ellipsis_grey_icon(6).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ellipsis)** menu, select **D****elete**.

## Overview

**Library Elements** are shared [modules](/v1/docs/what-is-a-module) and [Data Collections](/v1/docs/data-collections) available to one or more [applications](/v1/docs/introduction-to-unqork-applications) in an [environment](/v1/docs/environment-administration). Creators assign access and usage to a shared element by specifying if it's available to the entire environment, a specific workspace or application.

> [!NOTE]
> Library elements are not available with versioned applications.

To learn more about Library Elements, click on the buttons below:

## Sharing and Unsharing an Existing Library Element

At any time, you can control your Library Elements at the workspace and environment level. But, ensure you have the correct RBAC permission. You need the correct permission to make edits in the **Access & Usage** pop-up modal.

> [!WARNING]
> It's always important to be careful when changing or promoting Library Elements. Because you can add Library Elements to other workspaces and applications, changes can break those applications.

To edit an element's shared locations:

1. From the **Librar****y** drop-down, select Library Elements.
2. Locate your Library Element.
3. Click **Access & Usage** in the element’s tile.
4. Set **Edit** to ![A toggle switch indicating an on/off state for a user interface element.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/Group 1.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ON)****.**

### Unsharing a Library Element

If you no longer want to share a Library element, you can remove it from the Library. But, ensure you disconnect your Library Element from your applications before unsharing.

To unshare a Library Element from the Library:

1. From the **Librar****y** drop-down, select Library Elements.
2. Locate the element that you want to unshare.
3. Click **Access & Usage** in the element tile.
4. Set **Edit** to ![A toggle switch indicating an on/off state for a user interface element.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/Group 1.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=xGTp51wQG1L8ohXL1nFpuP0WcTP6szU8PVlB0%2FcwvSQ%3D) **(ON)****.**
