    • Browse for the data and view details as described in Viewing Data Details via the Web GUI. The Collection page or Data File page appears, listing all attributes for the collection or data file. 
  2. Click the permissions icon (The permissions icon.). The Permissions page appears. 
  3. Consider sharing the data with one or more users or groups:
