PAGE IN INITATIVE/GROUP

[SarahRadel]

Good Afternoon,

I have recently run into a confusing issue in our initiative. A page was created by an admin who is outside of the "mother" hub initiative, and a group was created by an admin inside of our "mother" hub initiative. The page is to be viewed only by those who belong to the group, and end-users are to request to join the group. However, it seems that the page and group are not linked together, even though it is. I went in and changed the sharing and group permissions, but I do not see the option for end-users to request to join. However, when looking at the page permissions, it is set only to people within the organization. I have created pages in the past that were only viewable by people who joined the group. I am not sure what is going on.  I apologize if this is confusing. Ultimately, I want end-users to be able to request to join the group, and I do not want anyone outside of the group to be able to view the page.  Any help or assistance anyone can provide would be much appreciated. For someone reason, I think that it may be a cross-institutional issue.

Best,

Sarah

Hi Sara,

Please refer the steps below 

1. Create a Collaboration Group to share and access the content from another organization, i.e., “Mother” hub.
2. Reshare the Page again with Share access with Owner and Editor Group Sharing with Created Group. (In that case, it will be accessed by the person created and people in the group)
3. Refer to ArcGIS Online documentation for How to Join and Use Groups, that will help you on how the end user, either from your organization or a partnered organization, can join the group by request. 

Thanks
