Im the PI on proposal xxxx. Why can I retrieve the data?
You can, but you’ll need to let us know you want it. Currently, PIs do not receive automatic electronic access to their data. (This is a technical limitation, not a policy.) If you are the PI and want electronic access to your proposal, contact archive@stsci.edu and let us know the proposal ID and your archive username. We will attach the proper access privileges to your account to allow you to retrieve this data electronically. You can also authorize co-investigators and co-workers to have electronic access as well. Just tell us the proposal ID and the names and archive usernames of those to whom you wish to grant access. (If they don’t have accounts, or you’re not sure if they do, then let us know their email addresses to we can help them set up accounts for access.) Authorization may be set up only on a per-proposal basis; we cannot restrict access to certain data within the proposal.
