ITS - Research Services is in the process of moving user management for LSS shares into Access Management, empowering share owners and their delegates to grant and revoke access themselves.

• For LSS shares created in July 2020 or later, please refer to the steps below about how to use Access Management to grant and revoke access.
• For LSS shares created prior to July 2020, please email research-computing@uiowa.edu to request a change to user access.
  ITS - Research Services will contact the share owner once user management for their share has been made available in Access Management.

Grant access to an LSS share using Access Management

1. Login to Access Management - https://iam.uiowa.edu/access.
2. Under Services, click on "Large Scale Storage (LSS)" and then click on the name of your LSS share.
3. Click the "Add" button on the "Members" tab.
4. In the popup that opens, enter the Hawk ID, Health Care ID, name, or email address of the user you want to add and click the search icon.
5. In the list of search results, click on the user you want to grant access to.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to select additional users as needed.
   Note: You will need to select both a user's Hawk ID and Health Care ID if they need access from both IDs.
7. Select the permission the selected user(s) should have - either Read Only or Read/Write to the entire share. LSS does not support complex nested permissions inside a single file share.
