I recently purchased a master subscription and the legendary bundle. I have been searching for tutorials about how to share source books and other bought content with my players but have found no way to enable this when logged into my account. I know I can create and share my own stuff but I was under the impression that I could share purchased content. Have I got this wrong or have I missed something obvious?
Create a campaign and from within that campaign, you'll see two key options:
Enable content sharing button - turn this on to share everything
Join link - share this with your players that you want to join the campaign and use your content
When they click that link, they'll be taken to the join page for your campaign, where they can either important an existing character, or make one using all the content you're sharing.
Once they're in your campaign, they'll be able to view all the books
Does it show who is the owner of what content? I'm new to the site and having trouble realizing how to filter content to what I own, and what others are sharing with me. Or just a page that shows me only what I own.

Thank you for any help!
The content management menu lists everything owned by everyone in the campaign that's currently being shared, but no, it doesn't tell you who owns what.
Yep, if Anne owns books A, B and C, Beth owns books C, D and E, and Charlie owns A and has a master tier sub, if they're all in a campaign started by Dani, she can turn on content sharing (as the DM) and everyone will have access to books A through E

The subscriber enables sharing, not the DM, but otherwise correct.

If two people own different content, can you share all content from those two people in one campaign? Thanks!
Once 'Sharing' is enabled for a campaign, all purchased content by anyone in that campaign will be available.
