Projects¶

Introduction¶

The Projects page contains a repository of all accessible Cloud Studio projects. From here, you can create a new project, import an existing project, or select an existing project to design.

After opening a project, you design it using the tools provided in the project designer:

• Project Toolbar
• Project Pane
• Design Canvas
• Component Palette

In addition, the configuration screens of individual components such as transformations, scripts, connections, and activities can be opened for editing.

As you work on projects, Cloud Studio remembers the display states that you were last using for a given project the next time you open it.

Access the Projects Page¶

The Projects page is the landing page for Cloud Studio, which is accessed directly through the Harmony Portal. From other Harmony Portal pages, use the menu to select Cloud Studio > Projects:

Projects Page Header¶

The total number of projects in the organization, controls to filter the display, and several actions are available along the top of the Projects page:

• Total projects for the selected organization: The number of accessible projects for the selected organization using any applied filters and search criteria. The selected organization can be changed in the top navigation bar (see Changing the Selected Organization in Harmony Portal).
• View: Click the tile view or list view icon to toggle the format used to display projects on this page. Tile view is the initial default view. The next time you load the Projects page, the last selected view is preselected.
• Filter by: Use the menu to limit the projects displayed by environment. By default, projects within all environments are shown, sorted by project name. The next time you load the Projects page, the last selected filter is preselected.
• Search: Enter any part of the project name into the search box to filter the projects by name. The search is not case-sensitive.
• Show trash: When enabled, this setting displays projects that have been moved to the trash (and have not been permanently deleted) in the past 90 days. This setting can be used only when accessing list view.
• Import: Click to open the project import screen, where you can import Cloud Studio projects in JSON format (see Project Exports and Imports).
• New Project: Click to open the project configuration screen, where you can create a new project (see Create a New Project in Project Creation and Configuration).

Tile View¶

To access tile view, select the tile view icon:

Tile view displays projects as tiles. Each tile has a front and a back that can be "flipped" over to reveal additional project information and actions. The front is displayed by default. The back is displayed on hovering over the tile:

• Front: The front of the tile shows the project name, environment, and last-edited local browser date and time.

• Back: The back of the tile shows the project name, environment, project description, and username of the user who last edited the project. In addition, these actions are available:

  • View/Edit: Opens the project in the project designer.

  • Actions: Click the actions menu icon to open a menu with additional actions:

    Menu Item	Description
    	Project settings opens the project configuration screen, where you can edit the project name and description, or export or delete the project (see Edit Project Settings in Project Creation and Configuration).
    	Logs opens the operation log screen, which includes logs for any operations that have been deployed and executed within the project (see Operation Logs).
    	Project variables opens the project variables screen, where you can view, edit, and add new project variables (see Project Variables).
    	Export opens the project export screen, where you can export the project as a JSON file (see Project Exports and Imports).
    	Move to trash removes the project from the environment in Cloud Studio and the Harmony cloud. Projects can be restored up to 90 days after being moved to the trash. After 90 days, the project is permanently deleted and cannot be restored.
