Hi collinq,

This is just the answer I was looking for. However, our organization controls the publishing in a separate area. I will need to lead them through this process. Can you tell me where the publisher would find the Request Access selection?

To put this in context, we have an Outlook Distribution List (DL) to control access to the dashboard. Right now, anyone who clicks on the link will trigger a request to the publishing area. We want to have the message pop up that then need to contact John Doe in the XYZ dept. to request access.

 

Thanks,

Michael
