Allow different users to update the same document on the publish online feature
I currently work on a team of three designers, and we sometimes work on each other's files. Currently, if there is an update to a file that has been published online, and we need to upload a new version of a document, we have to figure out which of the three of us originally uploaded the file and have them update it. It would be easier if we could update each other's files rather than asking the original designer to stop what they are doing to update a project.

We really need this feature - multiple people update documents in the team and need to republish so that wherever the original link is, on websites, in other docs etc all update.
Can't believe this isnt already a feature! -

It is essential really that multiple users can update published online files. When working in a large agency you do not have the luxury of the job always going back to the same designer and what if they leave or a job is picked by a freelancer.

I agree, I wish there was a way to share between team members. Then maybe publishing online can be password protected? Just in case someone should not have access anymore? (if they were let go, quit, or just not involved anymore).

Please Implement this! We've had to make so many unnecessary links that have created such a headache for my team and I, we desperately need this feature!

Please PLEASE figure out how to implement this! It puts a serious bottleneck in team collaboration that only one person has access to publish a document online.

YES PLEASE, this should be standard across all adobe team accounts. A designer on our team who published an inDesign project two years ago has now left the business and us who remain have no way of editing or deleting his published work without knowing his account login details. Defeats the object of having a team account surely?

Absolutely need this feature, surprised it isn't already possible. I'm going on maternity leave and this will severely put a wrench in our workflow

As a design team it is really important for us to be able to all update the same hyperlink. This update would be so beneficial to collaborative working and massively improve the use of Online Publishing.

Agreed, this is much needed. As a freelancer, I need to be able to share control/access of the hyperlinks and updating with my clients. When publishing online and distributing published online docs and sharing URLs widely, it is essential for us to be able to update documents and maintain the same hyperlink, and this would be much more manageable if access was available to both me and my client.

This is VERY IMPORTANT. If different people make changes to the same file only the one that first published the online document can use the Update Exisitng Document. The file that team members are updating should keep this information in the file so when other team members makes updates the Update Exisitng Document is there to choose!
Please! -

AMEN... This is one of the most missing features.
Make it possible to create more then one user as admin.
Even better make a admin / user section, so you could control it on a more "pro level".. -

YES! Not to mention, designers come and go. There is no reason to re-Publish, or keep an Adobe ID active.
We have Team accounts for a reason, let us share assets and links.
