Enrollment to a VO to access an EOSC service#

The step above are done once and allow to register and access EOSC services. To access a specific EOSC service, you have to *enroll” to a Virtual Organization. A specific service can have several Virtual Organizations to customize access (for instance, provide different quotas, etc.).

Some EOSC services enroll users “automatically” when they sign-up to their service. For others, you need to request access.
