Hi,
I want to try the new Place Component / Upload Component function (Modelling - Content - Place component / Upload Component). Unfortunately if I try to use it, I get the message:
You do not have permission to access this server
How can a user get permission to acces this server?
This function looks interesting. 3D warehouse for Bentley products....
Regards Louis

I agree that the message is not very helpful. Nor can I find a guide to configuring a component server in MicroStation help. However, I found this help page that provides a clue...
An organization's component administrator can create custom catalogs from their enterprise library ensuring that the correct digital components are used during the design phase. Users can then place these components as cells in their design. These components can then be managed by the iModel Hub as design changes are detected and change sets are sent to the Hub.
Sounds good: it has something to do with iModel Hub.

Hi Louis,
Your organization administrator should be able to give you access. If you are not sure who is your administrator, open https://connect.bentley.com/ and click "How are you CONNECTED", you'll see all administrators in your organization. And about what kind of roles do you need to use Components Center, please refer to below link:

Thank you Grace!
Hi Jon, Components Center is one of our Cloud Services, which can be accessed by a range of applications, including MicroStation and PowerProducts.
It is not possible to set up your own server, all components uploaded into your organization catalogs are hosted in our cloud.
You can find more information in this blog post and in the Components Center Community.
Components Center is a stand alone service so any queries which are not related to its integration with MicroStation should be asked in the Cloud Services forum.

Thanks, but why not place that useful comment in MicroStation's help documentation? And, while you're at it, remove the misleading reference to iModel Hub?

That should go into MicroStation help as well.
