A researcher can request to disclose the submission report if the Coordinated disclosure option is enabled in CrowdStream setting. It is enabled by default. In case it is disabled, then for information to enable coordinated disclosure, see enabling disclosure of submissions.
If a submission was created before disabling coordinated disclosure for a program, then the researcher can request the disclosure report and you can process the request. If a submission was created after disabling coordinated disclosure, then the researcher will not be able to request a disclosure report for that submission.
