Project-related

In Coscine, users can create projects and sub-projects to which additional project members can be added. A project can be created by any person registered in Coscine. The subsequent possibility of creating resources can depend on the respective organizational affiliation. Coscine has a clearly defined role management system at project level, which includes various roles: Owner, Member, Guest and External. In the table below you will find an overview of the most important authorizations of the individual roles within a project.
