Issue with accessing dataset #66

Open mikethedurak opened 2 years ago

mikethedurak commented 2 years ago

Hi, I am trying to access the dataset on the UK data service website, however, I am struggling to access the data because my institute, Stellenbosch University in South Africa, is an 'Unusable Identity Provider'. Could you please help me out with accessing the data?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you haven't tried it already, you will need to register for a (free) UK Data Service account before you can download the data. Staff at UK universities should be able to use their institutional login to do so. Users from outside the UK will need to use a specific form to request a UK Data Service user id. Once registered & logged in you should be able to download the data.

If that doesn't work I'd suggest an email to help@ukdataservice.ac.uk!
