How to share assets with external users for approval?

The eMAM users can use external approval option in the Approval widget to send an asset externally to somebody who is not an eMAM user. The user will type in the email address of the recipient, create a temporary username and password, and set an expiry date for the asset. The username and password are temporary, only for the approval process for the chosen asset. Once approved OR rejected, the link expires, and this login is disabled.

The external approver receives the following information in their email.

The email recipient (approver) must click on the hyperlink and enter the given temporary username and password. The recipient will see the asset with video player options, a space for comments, and then a button to approve or reject the asset.
