Publishing data in UKDA-store

UKDA-store contributors should publish their data in UKDA-store after they have uploaded all data and documentation files, preferably as soon as possible.

To publish and allow access to the project, check both boxes 'Confirm materials are ready for review' and 'Confirm materials are ready for publication', then click on 'Submit' within the 'Review Status' section. Further details can be found in the step-by-step UKDA-store user guide.

If successful, an email from the UKDA-store Administrator will be sent confirming that project files have been submitted. The data and documentation will be checked by ESDS before it is published. An email will be sent to inform UKDA-store contributors when ESDS releases the data and will include a link to the published data.
