Update Delegate Plugin

The Update Delegate is a Authority Managed plugin that allows the authority of the MPL Core Asset to assign an Update Delegate to the Asset.

The Update Delegate Plugin can be used when:

you need a 3rd party to update/edit the entire MPL Core Asset.

Works With


MPL Core Asset	✅

Additional delegates allow you to add more than one delegate to the updateDelegate plugin.

Additional delegates can do everything that the update authority can do except:

add or change the additional delegates array (apart from remove themselves).
change the plugin authority of the updateAuthority plugin.
change the root update authority of the collection.
