What are Teams?

Teams are spaces for individuals to work together on pieces of content. If you are in a Team with other users, and content has been assigned to that Team, anyone else in that Team can edit that content.

This tutorial is for creating Teams in the admin content management system. Teams can also be created by users via the Contribute system.

Example:

• Dark Earth, Hidden London on Layers of London

Resources:

• Humap & Copyright
• Humap & GDPR
• Different types of user accounts on Humap

Logging in

• To access the admin area, make sure you have the Project Admin level permissions and go to your-humap-url.humap.site/admin.
• If you’re not already logged in you will be redirected to your-humap-url.humap.site/log-in and presented with this screen:

• You can then log in with your email and password.
• You can also access the admin area via the Subscription Platform, if your organisation has an institutional license and you have Subscription Admin level permissions.
• Go to https://subscription.humap.site/users/sign_in and log in with your user name and password.

• That will take you to the Subscription Platform home screen.
• There will be a list of map projects created on your subscription.
• Click Admin next to the project you would like to access, and you will be taken to the admin dashboard of that project.

Creating and managing Teams

• Click Teams in the menu on the left to get to the Teams Dashboard

• Click New Team or create one.

• Name the homepage in the Title text box.
• Type a description into the Content text box.
• Does your project have an external attribution field, like a record number? Click Add New Attribution Field and add the information in the text box.
• Type in the information in the Name text box.
• Click Create Team. 

Send the link to the published Team to people you would like to add into it. At the bottom of the team page is a Request to Join button – when they click this, you will be contacted via email to grant or deny them permissions.
