hi - anyone around?
18:28 astrofrog
@pdurbin - are you around?
18:33 bsilverstein
astrofrog: pdurbin is out for today! anything I might be able to help with?
18:34 astrofrog
bsilverstein: one of my collaborators made me an admin on https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataverse/MilkyWay3D but I don't see any files there
18:34 astrofrog
even though she has many files
18:37 bsilverstein
astrofrog: hmm, silly question but were you able to see them before being made admin? (on the same account)
18:37 astrofrog
I wasn't logged in before she made me an admin unfortunately, will check with someone else on the team
18:38 astrofrog
they were always an admin so they don't know (and they don't see the files either)
18:39 astrofrog
I can give you my username if it would help
18:39 bsilverstein
huh, if the files aren't appearing for them [original admin] on the Dataverse / Dataset, they may not be published
18:39 astrofrog
there are three people involved, sorry
18:39 astrofrog
the original person sharing the data sees the file
18:40 astrofrog
files
18:40 astrofrog
another person has always been an admin on the project but doesn't actually see the files
18:40 astrofrog
and I was made an admin and I don't see them
18:40 astrofrog
the files are not published but if the owner sees the files, the other admins should too right?
18:41 bsilverstein
ah, got it. does the original data owner know what the access permissions are for the files / if they are published to the data set?
18:41 bsilverstein
usually there is a step after uploading files where you can review them before publishing them (publishing enables others to see them if they have access)
18:41 astrofrog
they are not published
18:42 astrofrog
but we want to collaboratively check them before publishing them
18:42 bsilverstein
gotcha. I think we actually just put out a privateURL feature to help do exactly that
18:42 astrofrog
ah ok, we'll check
18:42 bsilverstein
so the data publisher can generate a private link to share & review with collaborators
18:43 astrofrog
ah I see, so being an admin is not enough
18:44 astrofrog
it would be nice if that worked, since then any of the admins could press the publish button
18:45 bsilverstein
very true! I'll make note of that and send the idea along, sounds like a good option
18:47 bsilverstein
any luck with the privateURL? it's a fairly new installment though if it's gone live for harvard it should work
18:52 astrofrog
how does one get a private URL ?
18:52 astrofrog
we've tried to look but can't find it
18:53 bsilverstein
one moment -- I actually haven't utilized the feature myself before (I'm a lowly development intern) but I'll see how it's working real quick
18:53 astrofrog
thanks!

astrofrog: ah! my mistake, privateURL isn't live on the harvard dataverse version. totally got mixed up, just double checked. guess that's part of next release
19:03 bsilverstein
however it is an option to restrict any / all of the files in the unpublished dataset so that even if they are published only assigned users can view them
