Retaining RSP access after institutional change

Support Rubin Science Platform
#1

Hi, I’m a US scientist but will soon start a postdoc at a non-US institution that is not an international data rights holder. However, from reading RDO-013 I understand there’s a two year grace period for US and Chilean scientists after a change of institution. I currently use my US institutional credentials to log in to the RSP, but if I add an additional identity, e.g. my ORCiD, will I still be able to access the RSP with that identity after I change institutions?

Hoping the answer is yes, but would appreciate from hearing from those in the know, thanks.

Hi @rwclarke , thanks for your question and congratulations on the new job :slight_smile:

Yes, please link another identity to your RSP account, and in the future when you log in at data.lsst.cloud, choose that identity from the drop-down menu. This way, you’ll maintain access to your RSP account, and be able to make use of the data rights grace period.
