Hi all, I was wondering if it’s possible to include “is project member” (or something similar) as a requirement for observations in a collections project, so the collection will only include observations from people who have joined the project. In this case, it’s for a BioBlitz event over a very large area and with hundreds of users ([Border BioBlitz 2020](https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/border-bioblitz-2020-bioblitz-de-la-frontera-2020)), where we would like to distinguish observations made by project members from those made by other iNaturalist users. If this can’t be done, is there a way to download a list of the project members as a csv file? I’ve been looking, but I can only find the option two download all observers/users. Thanks very much! ---

The problem with that option is it can only be modified by project admins and the OP said “hundreds of users” so this is a management nightmare. I don’t think what is requested can currently be achieved more easily though. Ideally it would require a new feature checkbox something like “only from joined users”. ---

Thanks! Yes, a check box like "only from joined users! is exactly what I’m looking for. Looks like I’ll have to make a request :) In the meantime, is there a way to download a list of users who have joined the project as a csv or other more manageable formant? So far I’ve only found the page listing all the users. ---
