Team access to sites in U-M Pantheon is managed via MCommunity groups. Membership in the "Managing MCommunity Group" provided during Website creation in the ITS Web Services self-service portal determines who has access to a site in the Pantheon dashboard. Any non-UM email address you add to the MCommunity group will also receive access to the Pantheon dashboard.
The MCommunity group associated with a site can be changed through the ITS Web Services self-service portal. Changes made through the self-service portal are synced immediately to Pantheon.
However, membership changes made to the site owner MCommunity group through MCommunity get synced to Pantheon four times per day. The sync jobs run in UTC, so they will run as follows relative to EDT/EST:
- EDT (UTC-04)
- 0000 (12 midnight)
- 0600 (6am)
- 1200 (12 noon)
- 1800 (6pm)
- EST (UTC-05)
- 0500 (5am)
- 1100 (11am)
- 1700 (5pm)
- 2300 (11pm)
If someone needs access to the Pantheon dashboard right away, another member of the MCommunity group can give the new person access by clicking on the "Team" button in the upper right of the website's page in the dashboard (do not click on the Team item in the left navigation menu -- that controls access to the site's workspace rather than the site's team). Anyone who gets added to the site team via the Pantheon dashboard but does not get added to the site's MCommunity group will lose access to the dashboard the next time membership is synchronized.
