Data Sharing Between Users

How to share your result files on IDEA

  • Navigate to your IDEA cluster > account settings

  • Click on the actions button > add user to my group

  • Click the plus button to add users > type the usernames you want to share with

  • Verify usernames have been added and are spelled correctly

  • Ensure you are in your username's directory (use "pwd")

  • Type "chmod g+rx ." (no quotes, don't forget the period) to update permissions for your username's directory

  • Type "cd .." (no quotes) to navigate to the next level up in the directory hierarchy

  • Type "ls -al" (no quotes) and verify your directory has "drwxr-x---" permissions

Those who you've shared with should now be able to download files from your directory!
