We're looking at adding the embargo functionality at UC Berkeley. However, it's unclear if files need to be embargoed through the API or if we can embargo files through the UI (UI would be easier).

You can definitely embargo files through the UI.

Wonderful! We'd like our developer to be able to set up this function once and then for me (the main admin) to be able to embargo files as they come in, using the UI.

related question on embargo and file downloader permissions: it seems as though anyone who has file downloader permissions automatically has access to embargoed files. is this working as expected?

Great question. https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.8/user/dataset-management.html#embargoes isn't giving me the answer. :thinking:

Please feel free to open an issue to clarify those docs!
