Adding Admins
Requirements
In order to add an account as an admin, the admin group (registrars, chairpeople, electoral board) to which you want to add the admin to, needs to have one member missing.
Adding a Registrar or a Chairperson
Starting an Add Admin Request
- Log in to the admin web app with an electoral board member account.
- Click on
Admins
in the navbar. A list with all admins should appear. - If a registrar or chairperson is missing, an
Add Registrar
orAdd Chairperson
button will appear below the admin list. - Click on the
Add Registrar
orAdd Chairperson
button. - A pop-up should appear asking you to enter the address of the admin that should be added.
- Click on
Add Admin
. - A Metamask pop-up should appear asking you to confirm the transaction.
An alert should now have appeared on top of the admins page saying, that there is an open add admin request. The electoral board member that was used to create the request already voted on the request when it was created.
Finishing an Add Admin Request
Add admin requests for registrars or chairpeople require a two-thirds majority of the electoral board. Since there are 6 electoral board members, 4 votes are required to add the admin. Because the electoral board member that started the request already voted on it, 3 more votes are required to add the admin.
Since 3 more votes are required, repeat the steps below 3 times:
- Disconnect the currently connected electoral board member account.
- Log in to the admin web app with an electoral board member that hasn't voted on the request yet.
- On top of the admins page, an alert should be displayed, asking you to vote on the add admin request.
- Click on the
Add Admin
button in the alert. - A Metamask pop-up should appear asking you to confirm the transaction.
After you repeated the steps above 3 times and you refreshed the page, the alert should have disappeared and the admin should be displayed in the list with the other admins.
