Moderation Dashboard
The moderator dashboard is structured into four tabs. Click the tab to learn more about it.
Submitted
The submitted tab includes moderated registrations. The registrations are grouped into 4 categories to make them easier to search:
Public – approved registrations that are publicly available and listed on the registry
Embargo – approved private registrations that are not listed on the registry until embargoed date has been reached.
Rejected – rejected registrations
Withdrawn – approved withdrawn registrations
Pending
The Pending tab includes registrations that are pending moderator approval. These registrations are grouped into 3 categories:
Pending – original pre-registrations or registrations that require approval
Pending Updates – registration updates that require approval. This option is only available if your registry allows updates.
Pending Withdrawal – withdrawal requests that require approval.
Moderators
The Moderators tab includes a list of current registry moderators and moderator settings. Available features in this tab depend on the moderator’s current permission level. These are listed and illustrated in the table and image below. The Moderator Management section includes steps to add moderators to a registry.

Settings
The Settings tab includes notification management and the Bulk Upload service. Notifications are emailed to the respective moderator. They are customizable for new pending registrations and withdrawn requests and can be set to an instant, daily, or none frequency.
Notification settings for update requests are a future development and will be available for registries that allow it.
The Bulk Upload service helps registries upload registrations they have acquired and accepted outside the OSF. This feature is turned off by default and those interested should contact a member of the COS Product team. Instructions on how to use this feature are in the Bulk Upload section.
