# Project Notebooks: Turn on project administrator requests

# Turn on project administrator requests

This articles discuss the Request Access functionality within Project Notebooks. This allows users to request admin rights to a specific notebook if needed from the front-end.

*Prerequisites*: This task requires administrative access to the Project Notebooks plugin.

## Instructions

### To Turn on the Request Access feature

**Step 1**: Navigate to the **Project Notebooks Settings**area by clicking the menu item located under the **Project Notebooks** main menu item.

**Step 2**: Click the **Administrators** tab located at the top of the page.

**Step 3**: Check the **Turn on the 'Request Access'** checkbox located at the bottom of this page.

**Step 4**: Be sure to **Save** your settings by clicking the Save button.

 

Once this setting has been turned on, your users will see a **Request Access** button on each of the Project Notebooks listed on the [Project Listing page](https://mjssoftware.com/docs/display-project-notebooks-on-project-listing-page/). Upon a user requesting access, the plugin administrator will need to [approve the request](https://mjssoftware.com/docs/approve-project-administrator-requests/) to grant that user access.
