This pitch comes in multiple parts.

• There is an interactive prototype for the overall vision for sharing data connectors on Renku: ‣ (not everything in this prototype is to be built in this pitch)
• There is a write up of the overall vision for for sharing data connectors on Renku: Sharing data connectors between projects (overall vision) (again, not everything in that document is to be built in this pitch)
• This pitch defines a subset scope of the above vision to be built in one build cycle

🤔 Problem

When I am creating a new project in my group,

I want to easily reuse data connectors in my group

so that I don’t have to re-enter the configs for those data connectors (my teammate already created the data connector, why would I have to do it again?).

When I am organizing materials for a hackathon,

I want the participants be able to see all of the data used in the hackathon resources

and easily create new projects using those data

so they can easily get started without entering data connector configs.

When someone is browsing my group’s homepage,

I want them to be able to find the data we use in our work

and easily start new work with that data

so they can reuse and build upon it.

<aside> <img src="/icons/exclamation-mark_gray.svg" alt="/icons/exclamation-mark_gray.svg" width="40px" /> I tried to write out a job story for why Gatekeeper cares about showing data connectors on group pages, and I realized I can’t articulate well why…?! The next 2 job stories are for them, but not well written…

</aside>

When I am trying to understand who in my group is working on what,

I want to see who is working on which projects, and which projects use which data

so that I am not lost ?!

(PI) When I am ?

I need to know which projects are working with what data

so that I can direct new staff appropriately

and so that I can write data management guidelines
