Data collection for contributors

As a contributor, you fill in the data points an admin has assigned to you. Everything you need is in your own workspace.

Get started

1. Sign up with the email address your admin added.
2. Sign in. Palau opens your workspace.
3. Choose the project you want to work on.

You’ll see My datapoints: only the data points assigned to you, grouped by topic. Each project shows its due date and your progress.

Fill in a data point

1. Select a data point to open it.
2. Read the guidance to see what’s being asked for.
3. Enter the value. Depending on the data point, this is text, a number, a yes or no answer, or a table.
4. Add an extra explanation if the value needs context.
5. Update the status, for example to Data available or Need information.

Palau saves your changes as you go.

Review AI suggestions

Some data points may already have a value suggested by AI. Check it, then approve it or reject it.

Ask a question

Leave a comment on the data point. Your admin and the other owners will see it.

What you can’t do

Contributors can’t change account settings, the organisational structure or project setup. You can edit your own profile. If something is assigned to you by mistake, leave a comment or contact your admin.
