Query Builder UI Tutorial

Single Sign-On (SSO) Access with ADWB Workbench

After the Data Access Request (DAR) is approved, the data researcher can use the Query Builder to run remote queries. This means they can securely access and analyze data within the partner organization’s environment without directly downloading or transferring any raw data. All processing takes place remotely, and only the approved results are shared back into the researcher’s protected workspace for further analysis.

Click on Single Sign-on with ADWB Workbench. You will be redirected to complete the SSO login. 

Select and Authenticate Your Provider

Once there, please select the provider and complete the process. After completing your authentication, you will be redirected back to Query Builder.

Choose FDSA Instance in Query Builder

Back in QB, if you have sent request to different FDSA instances, you will have the option to select which FDSA you want to connect to.

Select an Approved Project   

When you select an FDSA instance, you will see a list of all your approved projects. Please select one to proceed.
