My Requests

Overview

My Requests provides a consolidated view of all your resource and access requests on Quark V3 — from initial submission through to a DS Administrator's final decision. Use it to track pending requests, follow up on items awaiting review, withdraw requests you no longer need, and look back at past decisions.

The section is organised into two tabs: My Requests (your open, in-progress requests) and Archive (your resolved request history).

Navigation: Select My Request from the left-hand navigation pane.

Types of Requests Tracked

My Requests consolidates requests submitted from across the platform. The Type column on each tab reflects the kind of resource being requested:

Type	Description	Submitted From
Cohort	A request to access a cohort built from a sensitive dataset.	Datasets → Cohorts
Download	A request to download a file or data extract — for example, an output file from a workstation's Results tab.	My Workstations → Results tab
Upload	A request to upload a file to a workstation, including vulnerability scanning and admin approval.	My Workstations → Data tab
Create	A request to provision a new resource, such as a workstation.	My Workstations

Additional ad-hoc requests — for example, extra compute, storage, or tool access not covered above — can be submitted via New Request from the My Requests toolbar.

My Requests Tab

The My Requests tab shows all of your open requests that are currently pending review.

Viewing Request Status

Each row in the table shows:

Column	Description
Name	The name or description of the request — e.g., the cohort or file name.
Status	The current state of the request (see Request Statuses below).
Risk	An assessed risk level for the request, where applicable (e.g., Low, High). Displays - if not assessed.
Type	The category of request — Cohort, Download, Upload, or Create.
Created By	Your username.
Created At	When the request was submitted.
Updated At	When the request was most recently updated.

Once a request is approved, it moves to the Archive tab, where you can find a link or reference to the resource that was granted — for example, an approved cohort request can be reviewed in Datasets → Cohorts.

Request Statuses

Status	Description
Pending Approval	The request has been submitted and is awaiting review by your DS Administrator.
Approved	The request has been reviewed and approved.
Rejected	The request has been declined.
Request Withdrawn	You withdrew the request before a decision was made.

Withdrawing a Request

If you no longer need a pending request — for example, you submitted it by mistake or your requirements have changed — you can withdraw it directly from the My Requests tab.

1. Locate the request in the My Requests tab.
2. Click the Withdraw icon (circular arrow) at the end of the row.
3. The request is removed from your active queue and moves to the Archive tab with a status of Request Withdrawn.

   Note: Withdrawal is only available for requests that are still Pending Approval. Once a request has been approved or rejected, it can no longer be withdrawn.

Filtering and Searching Requests

Use the toolbar to narrow the list of requests:

• Search bar — search for a request by name.
• Status — filter by status, e.g., Pending Approval.
• Type — filter by request type, e.g., Download, Upload, Cohort, Create.
• Created At — filter by creation date. These filters can be combined to narrow results. Click the refresh icon to check for status updates from your DS Administrator.

Archive Tab

The Archive tab holds all of your resolved requests — approved, rejected, or withdrawn — for reference.

The columns match the My Requests tab (Name, Status, Risk, Type, Created By, Created At, Updated At), with Status showing the final outcome:

Status	Description
Approved	The request was reviewed and approved.
Denied	The request was reviewed and rejected.
Request Withdrawn	You withdrew the request before it was reviewed.

Searching the Archive

Use the search bar and Created At filter to locate a specific past request by name or date.
