Figure 1 - Role Extern

External users are persons who are not project members. Therefore, this is a non-role. A distinction is made between users who are logged in to Coscine and those who are not.

External users who are not logged in can only access the PID landing pages of projects or their resources and submit a request to the project owners. External users who are logged in can search for metadata after logging into Coscine. They will only find metadata and PIDs for projects, resources, or files that have been explicitly marked as public by project owners.
