What Wildbook are you working in? ACW

Hi there,

I have a question about matching across siloed datasets in ACW. The scenario I’m wondering about is as follows:

  • There are 2 users who are not collaborating across each other’s datasets
  • User A has an un-ID’d encounter
  • User B runs matching for an ID’d individual and finds a match to User A’s un-ID’d encounter

Question - can User B confirm the match and assign their ID to my encounter, even if they don’t have authorization to access my data?

I think the answer is no but I thought it best to confirm with you all.

thanks!
Maureen
