How to approve and promote lab members

Caution: By approving a user to join your lab, you are approving them to access all the datasets in your Lab data space and all the datasets in the Community data space. Please make sure you know who the user is before approving them. If you have any concerns, please contact us at [e-mail].

Similarly, please be aware that a Manager level user shares many of the same authorizations as the lab PI on the ODC-SCI. This includes sharing/releasing/initiating publication of datasets and approving/removing users from the lab.

1. Make sure you are logged in as the PI or Lab Manager for the ODC lab. On the navigation menu, select “Current Lab”. If the Current Lab is not the lab you want to approve/promote lab members in, you can hover over the "Switch Lab" link on the navigation menu and select the correct lab.

2. In the top right corner, locate the Users window and find the user whose level you want to change by scrolling down. You will see the following buttons:
