How can I find out what Sources I have access to and how I have access to them (e.g. from my own purchase, or from which campaign sharing player)? Is there a screen that summarizes all of this information? Thank you in advance!
Edit: To put it a different way with an example - I hold a Master subscription and I have Content Sharing enabled on my campaign. How can I tell what Sources each campaign member is sharing with the rest of the group?
If you go to the marketplace there should be a "content unlocked" text only under items you have purchased. If you have access to any of the unpurchased items then they are being shared to you.
You can also go to your account (menu when mousing over your user, top right of screen) and click on marketplace there. At the bottom you should see a list of "Current Product Licenses" which only lists what you have purchased.
Thank you @Xaipher. Those are helpful but I am looking for a better, more informative way. How can I tell what Sources each campaign member is sharing with the rest of the group?
I am trying to find what you're looking for, I swear I saw a list of source with how they were obtained somewhere, but fyi the content sharing is only from the person who created the campaign, usually the DM. The players in the campaign do not share their content with the rest of the group.

This is incorrect. The DM does not need to own any content or have a subscription for content to be shared.
I have all the content and it shares when I am a player.
When an individual with a Master Tier subscription enables 'Content Sharing' on a campaign (whether they created the campaign or not), all content owned by ALL members of the campaign will be shared with each other.
That's interesting, didn't know that's how it worked. I have all digital copies purchased so I thought it was only due to being the campaign owner that players had access to everything,
Was this ever answered I have just started a new campaign and would like to see everything we have access to within the campaign so I am not buying content we already have shared

If you are the DM of the campaign, on the campaign page you can click "Content Management" on the campaign page and you will be shown a list of what is being shared with the campaign. (It also lets you turn off the compendium portions of any of those books so they are not shared). I don't think it will tell you who is sharing it, though.

OK, this actually helped. My frustration was building encounters and having to research what sources I had to avoid sorting through scores of unavailable monsters. Know I had the "Player's Bundle" did not help when selecting sources in the encounter builder. Thank you for the tip!!!

Edit: small clarification.
I don't know how to check what is shared to you, but you can see all the content that you have bought here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace
You can see what has been shared by creating a character in the campaign and seeing what sources are available.
Thanks, but that does not provide what I am looking for. You're right, I could just try to access each individual source. Is there a better way?
I clarified my question in the OP: How can I tell what Sources each campaign member is sharing with the rest of the group?

Hope that helps.

Are you the campaign creator?
When an individual with a Master Tier subscription enables 'Content Sharing' on a campaign (whether they created the campaign or not), all content owned by ALL members of the campaign will be shared with each other.
No, I am a player. The creator/DM doesn't own anything and the master tier sub is owned by a different player.
