Access to DataSpace Docker Images

This guide explains what you need to do to gain access to the private DataSpace Docker images hosted in the GitHub Container Registry.

Overview

DataSpace Docker images are published under the GitHub organization dataspaceswiss and are private.
Access is granted through a GitHub team. Once you are a member of this team, you can authenticate against GitHub Container Registry and pull the required images.

Step 1: Accept the GitHub Organization Invitation

1. You will receive an email invitation from GitHub to join the dataspaceswiss organization.
2. Open the email and click Accept invitation.
3. Ensure you are logged in to the correct GitHub account when accepting.

After accepting the invitation, you will be added to a team that has read-only access to the DataSpace Docker images.
