Data Management

Adding and managing users, groups and Projects.

In the left part of the screen there is an overview of the Team Drives and Projects you have access to and all the existing user groups.

On the top level of this screen, User Management has the Add button. With the proper rights you can a user, a group or a project.

The top-level directory shared is the place to put your shared data. It has the following absolute path: rug/home/shared/.

Whether or not you are able to add a new Team Drive depends on your user rights. To create a shared folder or a Team Drive, first select the Data Management panel on the left of the screen in the RDMS.

The option to create a new Team Drive is available via the drop-down menu at the top left.

Once a “Shared drive” (“Group drive”) has been created, the owner or the users with enough privileges may add new directories and data objects to it.

Every RDMS user with the right privileges in a shared directory can grant access to other users to the data stored in a shared folder.

In order to share the content of a folder or directory, navigate to the data management on the left-hand side menu and select the directory. Right click the mouse. This will open a drop-down menu with a set of options. Select the “Add user” option to grant access to a user with whom you want to share the content of the folder or the directory. This operation will open a new panel where one can select a user name and the desired level of user privileges for the specified user. Click the “Change permissions” button to apply the changes.
