Sharing Data

Your collaborators, especially those outside of Northwestern University, may not have access to all of the locations that you store your data. Globus Guest Collections allow you to securely share data with collaborators with or without a Northwestern ID. Additionally, you can create Guest collections on Northwestern systems to facilitate automated workflows.

The following Northwestern Globus collections allow creation of Guest collections

• Northwestern Quest

• Northwestern Quest RDSS

• Northwestern RDSS: Resfiles

• Northwestern Amazon S3 (Standard)

See Globus’s How to Share Data Using Globus documentation for step by step instructions on how to create Guest collections and grant access.
