Workflow and permissions

Permission to view workspace files

Users can view medium privacy outputs from any workspace they have permission to access (workspaces for which they have the Project Developer role on the Jobs site).

Withdrawing files

Files can only be withdrawn whilst a release request is in the Pending or Returned states. If a request is in the Submitted or Reviewed state, it should first be returned to the author in order to withdraw a file. Once a request reaches the Approved, Released, Rejected, or Withdrawn states, files can no longer be withdrawn through this mechanism. If it is necessary to withdraw a file in this case, please refer to the documentation for reporting a data breach.

Updating files

Files can only be updated by the author of the request, and only during the Pending or Returned states. This means that if a request is in the Submitted or Reviewed states, the output checking team must return the request to the author in order for files to be updated. Updating a file will reset any reviews associated with that file.

Retrictions for authors

Airlock does not permit users to approve or request changes to files that are part of release requests they created themselves.

Downloading restrictions

Please note that only request files (not workspace files) can be downloaded. Downloading is permitted only for the purposes of output checking. Request authors are not permitted to download files from their own requests, even if they are also output checkers.
