Ask to join a department

The first time you open Projects, choose the departments you work in and wait for them to accept you.

Updated 31 October 2026

The first time you open Projects you may not belong to a department yet. You then see Choose the departments you'd like to join.

  1. Tick the departments you work in. Find a department narrows a long list.
  2. Choose Request access.
  3. Your requests are listed under Your requests as Pending.

A department administrator accepts you and gives you a role, or declines. When a request shows Approved, choose I've been approved — continue to open Projects.

For department administrators

A request to join arrives in your Notifications. Choose a role in Role…, then Accept; or choose Reject. You can only give the roles you are allowed to give.
