# Gated Assets

Gated Assets are content items (like reports or whitepapers) that require a form submission or login to access. Tracking these assets in Beacon helps you gauge who is interested in deeper or more specialized materials.

## **Access & Organization**

* Assets Tab: Access the Gated Assets list from the Beaconsdashboard.
* Preview vs. Download: Some assets may have a preview or summary—others might lead to a download link after a form submission.

## **Engagement Tracking**

### Beacon records:

* Who Accessed the Asset: Contact details of those who viewed or downloaded it.
* Topics: Which topics the asset is mapped to (e.g., “Cybersecurity Best Practices,” “Workforce Management”).
* Date & Frequency: How often and when an asset was downloaded or viewed.

**Use Case:** Quickly see if multiple high-value contacts are accessing the same asset, indicating strong interest in that topic or campaign.
