titleCan I add/remove access to a Resource Account myself?

You must have manager access in order to adjust permissions to the account. If you need manager access or aren't sure if you do, create a ticket with CNS IT including the email address of the Shared Account.

Once you have manager access, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to the Resource Admin Tool online using your EID and EID password. 
  2. In the left hand navigation bar, go to Modify Shared. 
  3. Click on the name of the Shared Email, then click Select Resource. 
  4. The fields on the page will populate with the current settings for the Shared Email. 
  5. To give someone access:
    1. Enter the person's EID in the appropriate field, then click the button to give them the needed permission. 
  6. To remove permission:
    1. Click on the person's name, then click Remove User. 
    2. Do this for every permission you'd like to remove them from.
