Regarding the request for installation of "MATLAB and Simulink Integration"

IIUC, we'd need to link a Mathworks account with a valid MATLAB or Simulink license to be able to activate the App.
Please, let us know if that is something you have and you need help setting that up.
Hi @mmuetzel, I use MATLAB through the institutional MATLAB licence at the University of Sussex (UK). I also have a profile on Mathworks and the licence number associated with the aforementioned licence is 40591570. Is this all the info you need? I tried to do it myself but I only have maintainer, not owner status, for this package hosted by gnu-octave. Is is possible to change that since I'm the only person who maintains that package? Or would doing so grant me ownership of other packages at gnu-octave (which you probably don't want me to have).
The alternative is that I setup a fork of the repo with my own profile, install a GitHub App to automatically keep it synced with the gnu-octave/statistics-resampling package and integrate my synced-fork of the package with the Mathworks FileExchange submission (52741). Happy either way. Thank you so much for the quick reply and support on this. I appreciate that making octave/matlab code also available to matlab users goes against the philosophy of some people - I just want to make my contributions as accessible to as many people as possible, whether they use Octave or Matlab. I hope that is ok with you.
You should have admin rights for this repository:
And it looks like the app is installed and enabled for this repository:
When I clicked on that link initially, I was asked to log in to a MathWorks account with what looked like an email address and password. I didn't do that. So, I don't know if that works.
Please, let me know if I could do something else.
Hi @mmuetzel, unfortunately that hasn't worked. I think that logging into Mathworks is the critical step because when I did that for a fork of the repository (acpennlab/statistics-resampling) that I am 'owner' for, it worked (https://github.com/acpennlab/statistics-resampling). I could go ahead and use that instead but then I will lose all the download stats, comments and stars since I will essentially be creating a new submission. This would be a shame but it might be the way it goes since when I try to update the integration for gnu-octave/statistics-resampling repo myself logged in under my profile (acp29) I get the message 'This action must be performed by an organization owner'... in other words I think I need to be listed as an owner in the gnu-octave Github account, which I am not currently:
The only way I can think of maintaining the FileExchange link to the gnu-octave/statistics-resampling repo by necessary updating of the GitHub integration would be by having my membership at gnu-octave being temporarily assigned as owner for me to complete the login to MathWorks with my account details... but I imagine that is not a satisfactory solution for you folks.
I made you an owner of the organization.
Does that help?
