The dialog box can be used by a user with permission as a **[collection contributor](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AHP/pages/649531433)**** **to create a snapshot and add it to any collection. 

Once a snapshot is created, the snapshot publishing dialog box displays the

- Updated snapshot publishing status
- Date the last snapshot created
- User who created the snapshot
- List of collections that the snapshot has been added to (if any)

> 📝 If the user does not have **contributor** permission for any collection linked to the space, the **Choose collections** drop-down menu is empty, and a snapshot cannot be created.

A [collection contributor](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AHP/pages/649531433) can use the dialog box to create a new snapshot version of the document using the **Re-snap** button. The updated snapshot version is added to the listed collections. Additional collections to add the snapshot can be chosen from the dropdown menu before using the **Re-snap** button.
