Creating and managing groups
If your organization does not yet have a submitting group, you can create one. If they already have a group, you can contact someone within that group, and ask them to add you using your username. Everyone within a group is able to submit, edit, and revoke sequences uploaded by anyone else in that group.
Create a new group
- Log into your account and enter your account page by clicking ‘My account’ in the top-right corner of the webpage
- Click ‘Create Group’
- Fill in the required information about your group
- Click ‘Submit’ to create your group
Add or remove a user
Users cannot add themselves to groups; they must ask someone within a group to add them.
To add a user to your group:
- Log into your account and navigate to your account page (‘My account’ in the top-right of the website)
- Within your groups, select the name of the group that you’d like to add a user to
- Using the ‘user’ interface at the bottom of the page, type in the username of the person you want to add
- The user is now part of your group
To remove a user:
- Log into your account and navigate to your account page (‘My account’ in the top-right of the website)
- Within your groups, select the name of the group that you’d like to remove a user from
- Using the ‘user’ interface at the bottom of the page, click the red button next to the user you wish to remove
- The user is now removed
