How to invite users to a workgroup on BaseSpace Sequence Hub (Professional or Enterprise tier)

01/12/22


BaseSpace Sequence Hub (BSSH) is the Illumina cloud-based platform for data management, storage, and analysis. There are three BaseSpace Sequence Hub subscription tiers – Basic, Professional, and Enterprise. The Workgroup feature for the Professional and Enterprise tiers gives BaseSpace Sequence Hub users access to pooled resources. A workgroup consists of users who share data, storage space, and other resources. Only the workgroup administrator (admin) can add users to a workgroup, as described in the steps below.

  1. Log into BaseSpace Sequence Hub. Switch to the workgroup by selecting the user name in the top right corner and select the workgroup. Select the user name again and select Settings. Then select manage workgroups.

  2. Select the workgroup to which you want to add users to (ILMN_TechSupport is the name of the workgroup in this example).

  3. Select USERS on the left panel. Do not use the Invite option on the Administrators screen. The Invite option will invite the user as an admin only. A Professional workgroup can have only one admin.
  4. Select Invite.

  5. Add the BaseSpace Sequence Hub User IDs of your collaborators and make sure that Has Access to Sequence Hub - US (or EU, for the European Union instance) is selected. Then select Grant access

  6. Enterprise domain users only: Select the Add as workgroup administrators option only if you would like to give the users admin rights. This box should be left unselected for Professional workgroups.
