# Assign content request to content creator

Assign a new content request to a content manager so they can create the content and a publish plan, then send it for approval.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_cd.content\_admin

## About this task

You can assign a content request to a user with the sn\_cd.content\_manager or an assignment group.

An assignment group is a group of users that receive the content request. Content Governance includes two assignment groups out of the box: Content Admin and Content Manager, which contain the users with those roles. To configure a new assignment group, see [Configure assignment group types](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-administration/c_ConfigGroupTypesForAssignGroups.md)

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Content Governance** > **Unassigned**.

2.  Click the content request you want to assign.

3.  Enter an employee in the **Assigned to** field or select an assignment group.

4.  Change the state field to **Assigned**.

5.  Click **Update**.


## Result

The content request appears in the user's **Content Governance** > **Assigned to me** list.
