    After opening the notification, the owner can see the user that is requesting access and can accept or decline it.

    If the project owner accepts your request, you are added as a member of the project with a Viewer role. A Viewer role is the default role assigned and is restricted to specific actions.

    You then see the project under My Projects on the Home page.

    If the project owner declines your request, follow up with the project owner.
