Exchanging comments for new data product requests
You can exchange comments and questions about your requests for new data products. After a data product producer has accepted your request, they can send you a notifying comment to ask for more information. You receive the notification under
the Notification bell icon or by email (or both), depending on your preferences.
Notifications generate the following automatic workflow:
- Creates a new task in your Task inbox and marks any previous tasks as completed.
- Sends a notification either under the Notification bell icon
or by email (or both) to you. You can set your preferences for how to receive notifications.
- Stores the comment in the feed for your Task inbox. Click See all activities to view the history of the comments for the task.
You can respond to the comment by clicking Comment and notify from the task. The producer who is working on your request receives a notification of your response. When the producer responds again, you will receive a link to the new task that contains the response. You must access comments from the most recent notification, as older notifications are marked as completed.
Obtaining the URL for the new data product
When the producer marks the new data product request as completed, you can obtain the URL from the task in the Requested by you>Completed list in your Task inbox.
