# Editing the Contents of a LiveGroup

LiveGroup nodes, which are created in a locked state, can be made editable so that their contents can be freely manipulated. Once a LiveGroup node is in an editable state, it can be published as a LiveGroup source file or as a new version of a LiveGroup source asset.

When loading a LiveGroup source file into an editable LiveGroup node, the contents of the LiveGroup node become locked and non-editable. Its contents are automatically updated from the selected LiveGroup source. When a non-editable LiveGroup node is made editable, its contents are no longer automatically loaded from its selected source.

If a LiveGroup source becomes unavailable, Katana keeps the nodes inside of the LiveGroup node, by default. However, there may be times when you want the contents to be discarded instead. You can achieve this by setting the KATANA_DISABLE_LIVEGROUP_CACHING environment variable to 1.
