Registering a TRE

This guide describes how to register a TRE to the Submission Layer.

Prerequisites

  • A Submission Layer Administrator user - Submission Layer’s Keycloak Admin has to create a Submission Layer Admin user with dare-control-admin role using this guide
  • A TRE admin user - Submission Layer’s Keycloak Admin has to create a new user in Keycloak with the dare-tre-admin role using this guide. The credentials of this user will be used by TRE Operator to connect their TRE to the Submission Layer.
  • Name of the TRE - This is the name of the TRE that will be registered to the Submission Layer, and should be given by the TRE administrator.
  • Access to the Submission Layer as a Submission Layer administrator user

Steps

Login to the Submission Layer

Login to the Submission Layer as Submission Layer Administrator.

Open the Create New TRE page

Select the TREs tab at the top of the home page. This will display the list of existing TREs.

Click the blue + Create New TRE button at the top-right of the TREs page. This will open the Create TRE page.

Create New TRE

Fill in the TRE details

  • Name of the TRE (mandatory)
  • Username of the TRE administrator created in Keycloak with the dare-tre-admin role for the TRE with the name above (mandatory)

Submit the form
