# Requesting workstation user data

# Requesting workstation user data {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil

Requesting workstation user data enables you to collect and store data for future analysis.

The process to request workstation user data is as follows:

1. A Task Mining analyst submits a data request in the Employee Center. For more information, see [Submit a data request](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/e429nfViMEjiDrjh4cgLgg "Enable data collection for workstation users for a specific time range by completing a data request from the Employee Center.").  
   Note:  
   Create a data request for manager's approval with the new dates to extend the dates you want to collect data past the dates in an approved data request.
2. A workstation user's manager approves data requests from Task Mining analysts to enable workstation user data collection.

   For more information, see [Approve workspace user data collection](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/cMue6euqVJcH4GfxUIQByA "Approve data requests from Task Mining analysts to enable workstation user data collection.").
3. A Task Mining power user monitors data requests to confirm approvals are completed before Task Mining projects begin.

   For more information, see [Follow data request progress](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/VKFMmIRA1fI9KWSeoupJJA "Monitor data requests to confirm approvals are completed before Task Mining projects begin.").
