Requesting Access to a Model
Common questions this page answers:
- How do I request access to a model?
- What is an access request?
- What happens after I submit an access request?
What is an access request?
An access request is required before you can use a model. This allows model owners to authorise usage and maintain an audit trail of who has access and for what purpose.
Creating an access request
Submit an access request from the model overview page by selecting a schema and filling in the required form.
- Navigate to the model overview page and click Request Access.
The screenshot above shows a model overview page with a 'Request Access' button.
- Access requests require a schema, similar to model creation. Select the appropriate schema when prompted.
The screenshot above shows the access request schema selection dialog.
- Complete the form and submit the request.
