Overview

Project Spaces help you organize your projects and related Assets in the SnapLogic platform (such as, Accounts, Files, Tasks, and Pipelines) within an Org. You can access Project Spaces through SnapLogic Manager. In Designer, the Pipelines Catalog displays your Pipelines organized by Projects and Project Spaces.

Every Project Space has a shared folder where assets are shared between the various Projects within that Project Space. The global shared folder is accessible to all the Projects and Project Spaces within the Org. 

Unlike the global shared folder, where all users in the Org have read and execute permissions, an Org Admin has to add users to a Project Space and then assign permissions to the shared folder in that Project Space. Users added to the shared folder in Project Spaces automatically get read and execute permissions, which the Org admin can later update. For read, write, and execution permissions to a Project Space shared folder, an Org admin must explicitly assign full accessprovide a way to group related Projects and set permissions for them. Each Project Space has a shared Project and can contain multiple Projects. In Manager, the left navigation pane displays the Project Spaces tree. The shared Project immediately under Project Spaces contains Assets that are accessible from all Project Spaces and Projects in the Org. The shared Project in a Project Space contains Assets that are accessible from all Projects in that Space.

...

Org admins create and manage Project Spaces. They set permissions for users and groups at the Project Space, shared Project, and Project level. The following permission levels are available:

  • Read Only: View Assets.

  • Read & Execute: Read and execute Assets.

  • Full Access: Read, write, and execute Assets.

  • Owner: Modify permissions on a Project, change the ownership to another user, plus all of the above. The Project creator has Owner permissions.

When a user or group has different permissions at different levels, the lowest permission level is enforced. For example, a user might have Full Access to a Project Space, but if it contains a Project with Read Only permission, the user only has Read Only permission for all Assets in that Project.

When assigning permission to a Project Space, Org admins can choose to propagate the same permission to all Projects in the Space for that user or group. To assign read, write, and execute permissions to an individual Project Space shared folder, the Org admin can also explicitly assign Full Access to the user for that Project Space.

You can create and import Projects within Project Spaces to which you have at least Write permissions. When you move or copy Pipelines across Projects, SnapLogic checks for the related assets first within the Pipeline's Project, then in the Project Space' shared folder, and finally in the global shared  folder. 

...

Note

Avoid creating your own directories in a Project Space because permissions do not propagate to them correctly.

  3. Enter a name.

  4. Click Create.

The new Project Space displays in the tree in alphanumeric order.

Info

More than 1000 project spaces in an Org or more than 1000 projects in each project space can create performance and usability issues

Assigning Permissions for a Project Space or Project

As an Org administrator, you can an Org admin assign permissions to any user or group at the Project at the Project Space or Project level to limit access to project assets and define the actions users can perform.  To assign permissions at the Project Space levelas follows:

  1. Click the

  2. Click Permissions.

  3. From the Add dropdown list, select a user or a group. For Project Space permissions, check Propagate permissions to grant the same permission for all Projects in the Project Space:

    Image Added
  4. From the permissions dropdown menu, select the permission level.

  5. Click Save

  6. Add more permissions, or if finished, click Done.  

To assign permissions at the Project level, click on the drop-down icon next to the Project name and perform the steps mentioned above. 

Supported Permission Types

  • Read Only: Read the assets within the Project.
  • Read & Execute: Read and execute the assets within the Project.
  • Full Access: Read, write, and execute the assets within the Project.
  • Owner: Modify permissions on the Project, change the ownership to another user, plus all of the above.
In case of a conflict in permissions at different levels, permissions at the lowest level assume priority. For example, even if a user has Full Access to a Project Space, if it contains a project with Read Only permission, then all assets within that Project inherit the Read Only permission. 
Info
Info

After you propagate permissions, the user or group displays only in the Permissions dialog for the shared folder, not for the individual projects. Although they don’t show uin the Permissions dialog for individual projects, they have the permission granted at the Project Space level.
