Researchers can assign a Trusted User to act on their behalf and edit their profile.

The individual researcher manages their own Trusted User(s) to ensure they maintain control over who can edit their profile.

To add a Trusted User: 

  1. Sign in to Research Profiles and Repository and click on your profile photo at the top right of the screen to access the menu.  
  2. Click on User settings.
  3. Choose Trusted user(s) on the left side of the page.
  4. Click on + Add trusted user then type and select the name of the person you would like to add to have edit access to your profile. Repeat as needed.
  5. Click Save at the bottom right of the window.

A link to your account will instantly appear on the Trust User’s account.

Note: To remove a trusted user, follow steps 1-3 and remove a user by clicking on x alongside their name.
