Manage user access

Once you've given access to a user, you can edit their permissions or remove their access altogether. You can also customize the way you receive email notifications from your dashboard.

Before you start, first confirm you're eligible to be a Google Transit partner. 

If you're eligible, fill out the form to request to participate using an email address that's associated with a Google Account. 

Once we've approved your request, you'll get access to the Transit Data Sharing Portal using the email address you entered in the participation form. You can then use this account to give access to other users.

If you can’t access the Transit Data Sharing Portal, contact us.
