Request Access to a Data Collection

After you find a data asset that you need for use, you must request the data owner for access to the data.
    1. Open the data collection for which you want to request access, and review the details of the data collection.
    To find a data collection, see Search, View, and Enrich Data Collections.
    2. Click Checkout.
    The Checkout page for the data collection appears.
    3. In the Request Details step of the checkout process, enter the following properties:
    Field
    Description
    Business Justification
    Brief description about your use of the data collection. The data owner reads this description to decide whether the access request to the data assets is valid.
    Delivery Target
    Select a delivery target for the data collection. You can select a delivery target based on the delivery method and format that appears here.
    The list of targets that appear here is specified by the data owner. To add a delivery target, see Publish Data Sets as Data Collections.
    Delivery Requests
    Optional. Enter additional notes for the request.

    4. Click Next.
    The Usage Guide step of the data collection appears.
    5. In the Usage Guide step of the checkout process, read and accept the policy for using the data collection.
    The Data Marketplace Administrator or Axon SuperAdmin user can specify this policy text in the Data Marketplace settings panel. The usage guide can contain multiple policies. For more information, see the Assign Users and Specify Default Terms of Use topic in the Informatica Data Marketplace 7.1 Administrator Guide.
    6. Click Submit Order.
    You have placed an access request for the data collection.
    The data owner receives the email notification that you have place an access request for the data collection.
