What is an Inquiry?

An inquiry refers to an access permission request issued by a user who does not have access rights to an asset or its metadata, addressed to an administrator or operator.

Issuing a Request

Requests are made from the asset side drawer. Requests cannot be issued from the inquiry management screen.

When a request is issued, an email notification is sent to the person in charge who belongs to the user group with approval authority, informing them that you have made a request. When the person in charge logs into the workspace, the application can also be confirmed from the notification center.
