Import to TSD for external users

Project administrators can grant import permissions to collaborators who do not have a TSD user account in the project. These collaborators can then import data to the project through a link.

1. Go to TSD Selfservice and click Transfer links, under Project Administration

Click on Transfer Links

2. Log in with TSD, and click Create link

Click on Create link

3. Select which group has access to the imported files in TSD, an end date for the import link, and a description for the link. You can also set a maximum number of times the link can be used (leave blank for unlimited), a start date, and which subdirectory the files should be stored in.

TSD recommends using secret challenge when creating an import link. This is a randomly generated password, called a secret, that the recipient must enter in order to import. The secret is shared by the creator of the import link with the person who will be importing.

Fill in the required fields to create a link

4. Click Show details on the import link you created

Click Show details to view the link information

5. Share the link URL with the user. Share the secret through a secure channel with the person who will be importing to the project.

Copy and share the URL and secret with the person who will be importing
