Create and edit projects

Create a new project

You can create project from the Projects tab of your workspace by clicking the + New project button. Give the project a succinct, clear name to help collaborators and administrators identify it.

Editing a project

To edit a project, navigate to your workspace and click on the project that you would like to edit. You will also see an Edit project link at the top of the page for projects that you have access to.

From within the project editor, you will be able to update collaborators, metadata, workflows, and datasets. Click the View projects link to see how this project would look to the public (if this project were publicly visible).

Adding workflows and datasets

You can create workflows in a project from the Workflows tab, or assign any existing workflow to a project. Workflows can only be assigned to one project at a time, and that assignment may affect which datasets it can reference. Workflows in a project can be shared with all project collaborators, making it easy to share your work with the whole team.

Datasets can also be added and removed from a project, and will automatically be added as they are referenced in the project's workflows. This provides a list of all datasets that are in use, while allowing you to track access approvals for any project requirements across these datasets.

Settings

This page is only visible to project collaborators, and allows for you to configure certain aspects of the project.

• Internal notes can be used to document internal processes or other information about the project that you don't want non-collaborators to see.
• Access notifications allow you to customize who receives notifications regarding access approvals for this project. By default, all project owners are set to receive notifications when access is approved, rejected, expired, etc.

Deleting a project

Project owners can delete a project from the project's settings tab. If a project has had no activity, this deletion is permananet. If a project has already gained access to restricted data or been used in analyses, the project will be "soft deleted", in that it may still be referenced by historic logs and workflows. These soft deleted projects can be undeleted at any time.

Deleting a project does not delete any workflows or datasets that it contains. Workflows in a deleted project will need to be reassigned to a new project in order to run future analyses.
