# Unlocking a Locked Cloud Planned Run on the MiSeq i100 Series

**Background**

The MiSeq i100 Series allows users to use the BaseSpace Run Planning tool to plan Sequencing Runs and Secondary Analysis. After logging into the instrument using the Cloud account, the Planned Run is available on the MiSeq i100 Series instrument. If there is an issue during Run Setup, the Planned Run can get stuck in a "locked" state. If this occurs, see the following Troubleshooting Actions to resolve this issue.

**Troubleshooting Actions**

Planned Runs can only be unlocked by a User Account with local Administrator privileges. As Cloud Users are Sequencing Operator accounts by default, they do not have the appropriate permissions to unlock a Cloud Planned Run. See the following steps to elevate a Cloud User to an Administrator account to unlock Cloud Planned Runs.

1. Log into the instrument under a local **Administrator** account
2. Select the **dropdown menu** in the top-left corner, then select **Settings**, then **Users**.
3. In the **Users** User Interface (UI), select the Cloud User account associated with the locked Planned Run.
4. In the **Edit User** UI, select the checkbox next to **Administrators**, then select **Save**.
5. Log out of the local Administrator account
6. Log into the Cloud account, then navigate to **Runs** and unlock the Planned Run.

If the Cloud User is not able to unlock the Planned Run after being provided Administrator rights, contact [Illumina Tech Support](https://www.illumina.com/company/contact-us.html) for further guidance.
