Manage project collaborators

Research doesn’t happen in a silo—and neither does working in Dscout. Add collaborators to your project so your team can recruit participants, build missions, and analyze results together.

Add collaborators to a project

Once you’ve created a project, invite a few of your colleagues so you can work on your research together.

To add collaborators to a project:

1. Navigate to the project where you want to invite collaborators.
2. Click the list of collaborators in the top-right corner of the page. The Add project collaborators modal is displayed.
   
   

3. Enter your collaborator’s name or email address in the search bar.
   
   

   Note: Members of your Dscout account will appear as you type. To invite someone else, enter their entire email address, then click Select user. Keep in mind that these users will be granted Viewer access to the project. For more information on user roles, see User roles in Dscout.
4. Select the people you want to invite. Make note of their user roles on the right of the modal to understand what permissions they’ll have in your project.
5. Click the Add to project button.

Now you’ve got some company in your project! Email invitations will be sent to your selected users and you’ll see them listed in the Add project collaborators modal. Revisit this modal at any time to add more collaborators.

Resend a collaborator’s invitation

It’s easy for our inboxes to become cluttered. If you’ve invited a collaborator but they can’t find the invitation, you can share the link with them manually.

To resend a collaborator’s invitation:

1. Click the list of collaborators in the top-right corner of your project. The Add project collaborators modal is displayed.
   
   
2. Find the relevant user in the list.
3. In that user’s row, click Copy in the Project link column. The link is copied to your clipboard.
   
   
4. Send the link directly to your collaborator.

When they visit the link, your collaborator will be prompted to log in to Dscout and then brought directly to your project.

Delete collaborators from a project

If a collaborator no longer needs access to your project, you can remove them.

To delete collaborators from a project:

1. Click the list of collaborators in the top-right corner of your project. The Add project collaborators modal is displayed.
   
   
2. Find the relevant user in the list.
3. In that user’s row, click the Delete icon.
   
   

Now, that collaborator is removed from your project and will no longer have access. If you need to re-add them, follow the steps above.
