Using the Cloud Registry UI¶
Synopsis¶
The Cloud Registry UI is the front end of the ELIXIR On-Cloud Cloud Registry, at https://registry.elixir-on.cloud/. This page says what is specific to this deployment: how you log in, who has which rights, and whom to ask. For how the UI works, see its user guide; for the policies of the registry (verification, labels, sync), see Using the Cloud Registry.
For anything this page doesn't answer, write to cloud-service@elixir-europe.org.

Browsing without logging in¶
Anyone can browse the services and service types without logging in. See Browsing and searching.
Logging in¶
To register services and manage your own, log in with LS Login: select Log in in the top bar, then LS Login. This deployment offers no other login provider. You need an LS Login account: to get one, see the LS Login and registration guide. See Logging in for sessions and logging out.
Owners share services with others by their user ID, which the UI shows in the menu at the bottom of the sidebar (see Your user ID).
Rights¶
| Who | Can |
|---|---|
| Anyone | browse services and service types |
| Logged-in users | register up to 20 services (admins aren't limited); only admins add service types here |
| Maintainers of a service | edit it |
| Owners of a service | edit and delete it, and manage access to it (see Access and permissions) |
| Admins, in admin mode | everything, e.g. verify services and approve service types (see Admin mode) |
Roles on a service come from its owners: as the one who registers a service, you become its owner, and can give other users or groups a role on it. To get a role on a service that someone else registered, ask its owners.
The only group that grants rights across the registry is the LS Login group
ECP_CLN:ADMIN: its members are the admins. Admins start in user mode, and
act as admins only after switching to admin mode in the top bar. To ask about
admin rights, write to
cloud-service@elixir-europe.org.
Getting help¶
