# Overview

The Assets API enables you to retrieve metadata about assets in your Connecteam account. Assets are digital resources (documents, training materials, policies, etc.) that can be assigned to users and smart groups.

## Key Concepts

### Assets

Assets are digital resources stored in Connecteam that can be:

* Assigned to specific users
* Assigned to smart groups
* Managed with granular permissions

### Permissions vs Assignments
