Who do I ask when about what?
Please join our monthly onboarding call or feel free to contact info@correlaid.org!
Everything seems to be on Slack! How do I get on there?
If you want to become part of our Slack, drop an email to our info@correlaid.org. If you are already member of our Slack and would like to see your friend become part of the team, you can also request an invite from within Slack.
I can't push to the Github repositories ("access rights" error). What's up there?
You don't seem to have the correct permissions. Please drop a short email to info@correlaid.org and you'll be granted the correct permissions.
I'm lost with Google Workspace or Gmail, where can I find further information?
You can find more information here or you can drop a short email to info@correlaid.org.
I should have access to a group email (e.g. konstanz@correlaid.org) but I don’t see it when I go to mail.google.com?
You need to be logged into your personal Workspace account in order to see the group mail.
Also try:
- logging out and back in of your account
- reloading gmail
What is a personal account vs. a group account in Google Workspace?
Both are normal Google Workspace user accounts. The distinction is conceptual and specific to CorrelAid:
- personal account: your own account in the CorrelAid Google Workspace. For example, phil.b@correlaid.org. Only you have access to this account. You can have a Google calendar for your CorrelAid volunteering, send/receive emails in your function as a CorrelAid volunteer (e.g. to communicate with project partners), collaborate on Google Drive, ...
- group account: an account which is mainly there for the purpose of collaboratively managing emails, i.e. collaborative inbox. For example, each chapter has a group account / email, e.g. konstanz@correlaid.org. The respective local chapter heads (e.g. members of
group-lc-konstanz-headsGoogle Group) have access to the credentials of this account so that they can collaboratively manage the inbox of this email address.
