Manually remove myself from a BIM360 project as the User

[connanderson]

As the title suggests.

Please allow users to manually remove themselves from a BIM360 project.

Currently admins have full control and removal is at their incompetent discretion.

If you dont want to give that kind of "power" to the users, then allow them to submit a request to the admin to be removed. One or the other or both. Something to help the users. We are at a loss here when it comes to having projects under our account, and its getting cluttered with things we do not work on.

My company has me connected to 111 projects of which I regularly am in about 20.  Luckily there are man more that I didn't get signed up for.  If I grab a sample of these 111, they average 773 users each.  So that puts things at almost 86,000 people added to these projects.  And sure, there's an admin(s) for that (not) ‌‌.  With this many users, admins are going to be bogged down enough with the "Can you add me?" requests so how would they ever want to be in the removing business.  At my company these admins have more to do than just add people to projects all day, so having the ability to remove yourself from a project only makes sense, right?

Still can't believe how detached Autodesk is to this request.  Most of all: 

@joan_allen in her only response, saying that, "...admins generally don't want users to leave without knowing about it and approving it, in order to maintain control over "who can do what" on the project"

I dont really know how someone could think that users needs to be approved to leave a project. If you leave thats your problem, and will need to get re-invited...

Hurry up Autodesk and address this. It's absolutely ridiculous that I need to request to be removed from projects that are 5+ years old.  Atleast us the give option to archive projects from our accounts. I.E. removes all notifications but we still have an option to reactivate the project if we desire.

While I don't fully understand the reasons Autodesk wouldn't want to allow self-removal from a project, it seems like it would be very easy for them to add a simple "Contact Admin" link on a project dashboard or in the project home dropdown. I'm trying to get myself removed from a project in which the access I was granted was to simply upload a set of pdfs, three years ago, and have no way of knowing who to contact for that.
