Creating a high-quality experience demands many skills such as modeling, scripting, user interface design, and audio production. It's unlikely that one person has all of these skills, which makes collaboration between different roles an essential part of the development workflow.

To use Studio's collaboration tools with other creators, you must first complete an age check by either [verifying your ID](./../production/publishing/account-verification.md#verify-through-government-id) or [completing a facial age estimation](https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/42295385001236-How-does-Roblox-estimate-my-age).

**To use Studio's collaboration tools with other creators, you must first complete an age check** by either [verifying your ID](./../production/publishing/account-verification.md#verify-through-government-id) or [completing a facial age estimation](https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/42295385001236-How-does-Roblox-estimate-my-age). Group or game owners must complete an age check to enable the rest of their collaborators to join their games.

By default, you can only collaborate with creators in compatible age groups. For example, a 16-year-old creator can be in a collaborative session with a creator who is 17 and another who is 21. A creator who is under 13, however, must have parental permission to collaborate with creators who are older than 18.

If you're **under 13** and your team includes creators outside of your age group, you have two options:

+
**To work with creators outside of your age group, you must meet at least one of the following requirements the first time you join a Team Create session:**
60
+
61
+
- Become a [trusted friend](https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/46158344285204-How-do-I-add-trusted-friends) with every collaborator who has already accessed your game.
62
+
63
+
- You can send trusted friend requests to multiple people at once directly from Studio. Trusted friend requests from users under 13 require parental approval. In some regions, this requirement also applies to older teenagers.
64
+
- To see which collaborators you need to become trusted friends with to unblock yourself and which creators are currently blocked by you, go to your game in Creator Hub and then go to **Safety** > **Collaborators**.
65
+
66
+
- Receive permission from a [linked parent account](https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/30428321333140-Parents-How-to-Link-Your-Child-s-Account) to collaborate with creators of all age groups through the [collaboration parental controls](https://www.roblox.com/my/account#!/parental-controls). Parents can use these controls to choose which age groups they are comfortable allowing their child to collaborate with.
67
+
68
+
- Creators under 16 can request that a parent update this setting. Linked parents can update this setting directly from their parental controls.
69
+
- This setting remains in effect until a parent changes it. Creators do **not** need to request permission every time they use Team Create.
70
+
- Permission to collaborate with all age groups does **not** guarantee access to every collaboration session. For example, if another collaborator under 16 who accessed the game before you has their own parental permissions restricted to similar age groups or trusted friends, you won't be able to collaborate with them unless they add you as a trusted friend.
71
+
72
+
After a creator meets one of these requirements and successfully joins a Team Create session, they retain access unless they lose trusted friend status with a required collaborator or a parent revokes their Studio collaboration permission.

If you're **13 or older** and your team includes creators outside of your age group, you can add those collaborators as [trusted friends](https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/37725513985812-Unlocking-trusted-friends). Trusted friends can collaborate with each other regardless of age. For larger teams, you can add multiple collaborators as trusted friends at once from Studio.
