Private Animations
Private animations can only be viewed, play and shared by the owner.
Since this type of animation is only available to you, the commenting
service will not be available.
As the owner of this animation, you can make change a private animation
to be a public by changing the isPublic
flag.
Doing this will allow the animation to be accessible by everyone else.
Public Animations
Public animations can be viewed, play and shared by anyone accessing the system. By marking an animation public, you (as an author of that animation) are granting everyone else a view access to your animation.
