1 Select a project library that you’ve set up to share, enter the library’s details section, and choose the Export Access Key option from the settings icon in the upper right.
2 Choose a location via the Create Access Key dialog, and click Save. An access key file is saved to the location you chose with the file extension .resolvedbkey.
3 Copy the .resolvedbkey file to the workstation you want to connect to the shared project library.
4 Open DaVinci Resolve, and when the Project Manager appears, open the Project Libraries sidebar, and then drag the .resolvedbkey file and drop it anywhere within the Project Manager. The shared project library should now appear in the Project Libraries sidebar, and if you select it, you’ll see all of the projects that are located in that project library on the Project Server.
If necessary, you can also disable sharing for any project library, preventing remote access to it from other workstations on the network.
1 With the DaVinci Resolve Project Server application open, select a project library you enabled sharing for, and click the Project Library Enabled slider off. It’s at the top of the project library’s details section.
IMPORTANT: If you enable sharing on a computer that is later moved to another network (for example, if you set up Project Server sharing on a laptop), you’ll need to disable sharing and then re-enable it before you create access key files that will successfully connect to the new network location.

2 When a dialog appears asking if you want to authorize the configuration of your PostgreSQL server, click Authorize. That project library will no longer be shared.
Cloud Project Libraries
Cloud project libraries are hosted on Blackmagic’s Project Library servers on the internet, allowing DaVinci Resolve users to connect and collaborate on the same projects from any location in the world.
