SharePoint - Granting Access to a Site

Site administrators can grant access to users who need to view documents on a SharePoint site.

Access can be granted by the site administrators for that SharePoint site. If you need access, please ask the site administrator to add you.

Granting Access (Site Administrators)

  1. In the SharePoint site, click Site Contents in the left pane near the bottom.
  2. Click User Management near the bottom of the list.
  3. Enter the user's E-ID and click Add under their desired role.

If you do not know who the site administrators are, contact sharepointadmin@lists.siue.edu.

More resources can be found on the SharePoint web page here: http://www.siue.edu/its/sharepoint/
