How do I access the project settings?

You can access the project settings from within the project via clicking on the most left tab 'Info'.

Edit the project name

Click the project name field on the top or click on ‘Change name’, enter a new name and hit 'Confirm', or 'Cancel' to keep the current name.

Add/remove a project member

When a project is created (by workspace administrators or members) other users can be invited to this project. To do so:

  • Go to the Users tab in the project where you as a user have the Project admin role assigned.

  • Select a user and choose ‘Invite’ to provide them access to the project.

  • If a new user is not a workspace member yet you can enter the email address and invite him directly from the project. The new user will be added as 'Member' to the workspace and project by default.

  • After the new user has been invited you can set access rights and permissions for the new project member (see explanation below)

  • To remove a project member click the 'Remove' button right of the user row.

  • Project administrators can only leave their project when there is at least one other user in the project with ‘Project admin’ role.

Set project member permissions

Project Roles

The three roles are defined as follows:

  • Project admin

    • Manage users

    • See all and access all in the project

    • Can be assigned to one or multiple users

    • Cannot unassign itself from this role to guarantee that there is always another user who can take over this role

  • Member

    • Can be promoted to Project admin

    • Can be assigned to one or multiple users

    • Can be given Access rights (default: All) and Permissions (Default: All) as described below

  • Guest

    • Can not be changed to Project admin or member

    • Can be given Access rights (default: None) and Permissions (Default: View) as described below

Project Permissions

Within the project, each user can have an individual set of permissions. These permission are by default grouped according to the user role, but can be customized at will.

Note that both member and workspace administrators can become “Project Admin”

Options are View, All and Custom.

  • All: The user in the project can do everything (e.g. upload and share data, rename, move, etc)

  • View: The user can only see all files and their content, but is not allowed to trigger any further activities.

  • Custom: Choose to select from View (enabled by default), Edit, Upload and Share permissions.

Project File Access

Access can be set to All or None.

  • All: The user in the project can see and access all files and folders

  • None: When freshly invited but not yet given access to data, Guests can be provided access to data when permitted by other non-guest users.

  • Custom: Individual Folders can be given access to

Project area

This part shows a map as soon as sensor specific data has been uploaded to the project that are currently supported and the boundaries in which area they are located.
This offers simply a quick overview, for further activities/options in a map context please use the main map (’Maps’ icon on left navigation bar).

How to delete a project

At the bottom section of the ‘Info’ tab you can choose to delete the project and confirm the message (or cancel if you decide not to delete the project).

Note: This operation cannot be undone!
