Dataverse Settings
When a dataverse is created, it is set as not released. A dataverse that is not released can be viewed or accessed only by a Dataverse Admin, Curator, or Contributor for that dataverse, or by any user granted permission explicitly to access it. It appears on the Coming Soon tab in the Dataverse Network. When work on the dataverse is complete and the site is set to released, it then appears on the Now Available tab in the Dataverse Network. Any user can view or access the dataverse after it is released.
Permissions can be granted to access a dataverse that is not released.
Note: When a user browses or searches a Dataverse Network, all studies and collections in a dataverse that is not released are omitted from any list of search results.
