Give admin users access to all studies?

[Deleted User]

I apologize if this has already been discussed, but is there a way for admin users to access any study on their JATOS? Right now, I have to ask all our users individually to share their studies with the admin user. Thanks!

Hi,

JATOS was build with privacy in mind and for such an admin should not have access to other studies (and their result data) but their own. That said it wouldn't be a big change to add this kind of behavior to JATOS. I can think of a new field in the JATOS config, like 'adminMemberAllStudies', which can be used to turn this feature on - but by default it is turned off. But this feature would only be part of the next release.

Best,

Kristian

Hi Kristian,

Many thanks for the response. Makes sense about the privacy. That said, it would be acceptable in our lab for admins to have access to all data, since the admin would be a PI, or at least an approved member of the IRB. So a feature like this would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I'll put it in one of the next release (probably next one).
