I have submitted the necessary documentation to request access to various studies, however, I am confused by the "request access" button next to each individual file. If the request submission is approved, will all controlled data files become accessible? Do I need to add each individual file I'm requesting to my download cart? Thank you!

As the submitter, you'll receive the automated annual renewal reminders and need to re-submit the access request on behalf of the other data requestors. If this is not something you want to be responsible for, I suggest reaching out to our ACT team to determine the correct next steps. You can reach them via the Sage Bionetworks Help Center's Access & Compliance Team portal at: https://sagebionetworks.jira.com/servicedesk/customer/portals Best, Jessica
Hi, For all files associated with a study you'll only need to agree to the terms of use one time, even though the "request access" button is next to each file. You can click on any one of the request access links to submit your data access request. Once your access request has been approved by the Synapse Access & Compliance Team, you'll have access to all controlled data files associated with that study and be able to download the files to your download cart. You can choose to download a file individually or choose a group of files to download at the same time. Please refer to this [Use Case](https://help.adknowledgeportal.org/apd/Use-Case-%231:-Find-and-Download-Data-Associated-With-a-Selected-Study.2426535991.html) for finding and downloading data associated with a selected study. If you have questions or need further assistance, please email act@sagebase.org. Best, Kimberly
I don't actually know the answer to that question, but @KimCorr777 from our Access and Compliance Team should be able to help you.
Hi Jessica, Great, thank you! Additionally, is it okay that I submitted the access request instead of the principal investigator of the study? My synapse username is listed as another data requestor on the DUC.
Hi, Once you?ve been granted access to a study, you?ll see the ?Request Access? button update to a ?View Terms? button for all files that belong to that study. At that point, you?ll be able to add all of the study files to your download cart with a single action using the **Download Options/Add to Download Cart** control. You can find that control in the upper right corner of the table; in the diagram [here](https://help.adknowledgeportal.org/apd/Accessing-Data.2137260765.html#AccessingData-Visualizations) it's labeled (4). For additional information about all the available download options, please refer to the [Downloading Data documentation](https://help.adknowledgeportal.org/apd/Accessing-Data.2137260765.html#AccessingData-Downloadingdata). Best, Jessica
