Question

Clarification of the difference between the "Group" in the UPT and the "Collaboration Group" in caArray

I created a new collaboration group, "Research Fellow", in the UPT, and added a new user to this new group using the UPT. When the new user tried to log in to caArray, the error message appeared: "Your current role does not allow you to view this page...." I have associated the new group with all the available privileges in the UPT

...

. Why can't this user log in?

The "groups" in the User Provisioning Tool (UPT) are different from "collaboration groups" in caArray. The UPT "groups" refer to predefined groups such as Principal Investigator or Lab Scientist, which determine what roles the user has. (See Roles in caArray on page 105 of caArray User's Guide.) The caArray "collaboration groups" are a way to group multiple users (for example, into an "UPenn collaboration group") and control their access to experiments. The UPT "groups" are managed within UPT (See Fig. 1); whereas caArray "collaboration groups" are created and managed within the caArray application (See Fig. 2).

The UPT is a separately installed application which serves as the user management interface for all National Cancer Institute CBIIT Life Sciences Distribution (LSD) applications, . caArray is just one of the applications that use the UPT to manage user access. Therefore, not all the functionalities in the UPT are applicable in caArray. A user with System Admin 's privilege privileges in the UPT can, but should not, create new caArray groups in the UPT because the caArray was not designed to use this functionality of the UPT. caArray only uses UPT to create new users and assign new users to the existing groups. The only predefined groups for caArray users are System Administrator, Principal Investigator, Lab Administrator, Lab Scientist and Biostatistician (See Fig. 3). It is worth noting that all predefined groups except the System Admin have the same access privileges in caArray. It is also worth noting that any other group created in UPT cannot be recognized by caArray.

Collaboration groups can only be created in caArray; , and any registered user can create and manage collaboration groups to control data sharing of his/her experiments (See Fig. 4)the user's own experiments. When a collaboration group is created, it will show up in the UPT "group" list (See blue highlight in Fig. 3). That is why if you created a "group" in the UPT, you will not be able to use the same name to create a collaboration group in caArray. You have to delete the "group" created in UPT before you can create the collaboration group in caArray using the same name.
