MXTHE EXCHANGE IN CONTEXT
Give the handoff some context.
A review cut may need to reach a small group before it is ready for wider release. Define who can receive the file and the period during which it should be available.
MX provides a route for sensitive business files between named recipients. Match access conditions to the purpose of the exchange and use the available activity record to support follow-up. Keep the underlying approval and information-handling decisions in your own process.
WHERE THE WORKFLOW HELPS
The moments that need a handoff.
Partner handoffs
Share source footage with the production partner handling the next stage.
Approved masters
Release the final file to the agreed publishing or distribution contact.
A HANDOFF, IN PRACTICE
The right files.
The full context.
A producer is sharing an unreleased cut with a small review group. Make the version obvious and state the questions reviewers should answer. Agree the access period and post-download handling before delivery, especially where an embargo or restricted audience is part of the release plan.

A USEFUL RESULT
Reviewers can play the correct cut and return feedback against a shared version and timecode reference.
MAKE THE FIRST EXCHANGE COUNT
Test the details.
Then repeat with confidence.
Use the example package as a starting point for a small, representative trial. Agree the success criteria with the person who will actually receive the files.
Check completeness
Current review export should be easy to identify in the inventory. Open the delivery copy independently of your working folder to catch missing files or local dependencies.
Walk through access
Test with the intended recipient role and receiving environment. Confirm the access conditions, the instructions and the route for getting help.
Agree what success means
Reviewers can play the correct cut and return feedback against a shared version and timecode reference. Record any remaining questions before making the exchange part of routine work.
FROM PREPARATION TO RECEIPT
Give each exchange
a clear sequence.
Use Confidential-Review-Cut.mp4 as an example of a defined package. Replace it with the approved files and instructions for your actual task.

Apply the access conditions
Confirm authentication, availability and any download conditions for your service. MX's existing features include named access, MFA and configurable expiry controls.

Review the exchange
Check the recorded activity and follow up through the agreed process. Keep the exchange reference with the project or client record it supports.
DEFINE THE BOUNDARY
Check the fit
before the first file.
Check the recipient's playback environment and any embargo. Downloaded material requires handling controls outside the transfer service as well.
Assess the controls against a representative package and recipient. Confirm any mandatory capability, contract term or deployment requirement with the MX team before relying on it.

What to know
before you begin.
Questions about secure video sharing and the exchange workflow.
Does file delivery provide video review tools?+
Assess annotation, timecoded comments, streaming and approval requirements separately. A controlled transfer can deliver the review file while feedback and editorial sign-off remain in the chosen review process.
Does expiry remove a video already downloaded?+
Do not treat expiry as remote deletion of a recipient's local copy. Agree post-download handling and verify the exact access behaviour during evaluation.
How should we prepare the files?+
Deliver a review export to the appointed client or stakeholder. Check the approved version, any required dependencies and the recipient's ability to use the package. Include only the material needed for the purpose.
What should we verify during a trial?+
Test a representative exchange from sender preparation to recipient access. Check authentication, permissions, expiry behaviour and the activity available afterwards. Include the actual file types and recipient environment you expect to use.
Does an access expiry remove downloaded copies?+
Do not assume expiry deletes a recipient's local copy. Agree post-download handling and retention responsibilities, and confirm the precise behaviour of the service configuration you plan to use.
Where can we check product details and commercial terms?+
Use the current MX product information and confirm the proposed service with the team. Review the plans and pricing alongside your actual users, workflow and deployment requirements.
