Project Details panel

The Project Details panel provides various details about the project and allows users to change the project configuration.

To open the Project Details panel, select Project > About Project.

The panel includes the following tabs:

General

Options

  • Project name and controls to change it.
  • Disable data caching on clientIf the project data is extremely sensitive, you may disable caching the data in the web browsers. It will result in noticeably increased start time.
  • Import/Export – Project settings and configurations can be imported or exported to projects.
  • Delete timelines – When selected, event related data will be deleted. This means the uploaded data will be deleted. Deleting timelines will wipe out all of the event related data you’ve loaded, but preserve any configurations or project metadata you may have configured (saved sets, icons, file mappings, queries etc.).
  • Delete all data – When selected, all data within the project will be deleted. This means saved data mappings, icons, sets, filters, and histories will be deleted. Deleting all data will wipe the entire project clean including metadata and set the project back to a blank slate.

Sharing

A project may have any number of users and a user could be a part of multiple projects.

A user’s permissions in a project could be one of the following:

  • Owner – The user who created the project. There’s only one owner for a project at a time. The ownership could be transferred to another user. An owner has all the rights of an administrator user.
  • Dashboard Viewer – Can only view dashboards.
  • Viewer – Can only view data. Can’t save sets, can’t save queries, can’t create or remove tags.
  • User – Can view the data and save sets, queries, tags.
  • Data Manager – Has access to the Upload panel and can upload new data.
  • Admin – Can view the data AND upload new data AND add/remove other users and change their rights (except for an owner's permissions).

    Any admin or owner could make another user an admin or remove the admin role from a user, except from the owner. An admin user can change the permissions of other users by clicking the drop-down list in the user grid. Admin users can also add another user to the project by typing their email and clicking Enter. A new user has the User permissions by default. If the user already has an account in Process Intelligence, they simply receive an email notification about access to a new project. If the user doesn’t have an account, a new account is created in Recovery status, and the user is sent an email with a temporary password.

User roles and permissions

Once you sign up for Process Intelligence, you are automatically linked to an account. It can be someone else's account, for example, your organization's one, if you followed the link from an email to register, or your own account, which is created automatically when you register directly in Process Intelligence. Each user belongs to one and only one account.

There are several ways to join an existing account:

  • If you are not registered in Process Intelligence, and the account owner adds you to the account, Process Intelligence sends you an automatically generated invitation to register. Once you join Process Intelligence, you are immediately linked to the account.
  • If you are registered in Process Intelligence, and the account owner adds you to the account, Process Intelligence sends you an automatically generated invitation to join the account. You can join the account or select to remain an independent account.
  • If you are an account owner and want your employees to join the account by domain name automatically, you need to turn on the AutoJoinDomain feature in the Admin application. Please contact your Blue Prism account manager to request this feature to be enabled. After enabling it, an email with a specified domain name will be automatically associated to your organization account once a user signed in to Timeline.

    Already registered users are not affected.

If you leave an organization account where you are not an owner, you get your own account.

User permissions are regulated by using roles. A role is a set of permissions which determine what people can see and do in Process Intelligence. There are administrative roles that are designed for people responsible for managing accounts and data. Non-administrative roles let people work with data in Process Intelligence and access analysis results.

Scope

Role

Description

Account Admin

Users with this role have access to the ABBYY Timeline account and control (add, remove, delete) other users related to the account and can delete any projects and repositories created within the account. Admin has no rights to delete the owner of the account.

Owner

User who has full control over the account.

User

A person having a unique identifier (login) in Process Intelligence. Login is identical to email address. Each user belongs to only one account.

The project and repository scope roles are used to customize the sharing of projects and the repository.
