# Permission Request Workflow

The **Permission Request Workflow** defines the hierarchical process for obtaining access to resource folders on the central file server ([[nas.rz.uni-greifswald.de]]).

## Access Types
- **Automatic**: Granted only to the requester via [[ums]] (assigned as the [[ressourcenverantwortliche]]).
- **Manual**: Required for all other users, who must be added to specific permission groups.

## Request Hierarchy
Users should seek access in the following order of priority:
1. **Resource Owner**: Contact the [[ressourcenverantwortliche]] directly.
2. **Area Administrator**: Contact the [[bereichsadministratoren]] of the relevant institute or facility.
3. **URZ Support**: If no area administrator is available, submit a request via the [[groupware]] ticket system. This path requires the resource owner to approve the change via email.
