Before a user can log in to the caNanoLab application to submit and search data, you must first create a user account through the UPT web interface. The caNanoLab application makes use of the NCICBIIT's User Provisioning Tool (UPT), a separate web application, for user account management. The concepts of users, groups, roles, protection groups are defined according to the CSM/UPT principles. See the CSM documentation for details on these concepts and the use of the UPT tool.
Since release 1.5.2, as a part of the database seed data, two default user groups are created: Public and Curator. The group Public is assigned role R (read-only) public protocols, samples, and publications. The group Curator is assigned role CURD (create, update, read and delete) to all protocols, samples, and publications in the system. When a user first logs into caNanoLab, the user is automatically added to the Public group and can can see all public data. The user needs to be added to the Curator group in the UPT tool in order to have Curator access.
