Projects

Projects were formerly known as boards.

Projects are an easy way to organise tasks or documents when you have multiple projects.

The concept

You can think of a Project as a container. When you select a Project, all Tasks/Documents are placed in that container. You can access all the Tasks/Documents in the active project, but you can't see or access Tasks/Documents in other containers. This means You can create a project and switch to it.

Task Manager

If you now create a Tasks/Documents, it will be created in that project. When you use task list you will only see tasks created in this project. If you switch to any other project, the task you have just won't be visible in the task list because it was created in another project.

Knowledge Manager

In the Knowledge Manager projects are used as a way to organise topics. They store topics, which are like folders and store documents.

Default project

The default project is called 'default'. It can't be deleted or renamed, but you can switch to it. It is active by default for everyone.

Personal projects

Personal projects are projects where you have full control over. If you create a personal project you will get all permissions granted to you.

So, if you create a personal project, you will get every permission granted to you. This means you can view, create, edit and delete all tasks/documents/topics in that project. Other users can't view tasks/documents/topics in your personal project, unless they have the required permissions in a global scope.

To add a user to your personal project, you would have to grant them the permissions in the project.

⚠️

Personal projects can be managed by users with the required global permissions.

Project managers

Project managers don't have any special permissions. They are just users who are responsible for the project. This should be used as an organisational tool.

Project managers in the Task Manager

In the Task Manager, project managers can be set as a default assignee to tasks. This means that when a task is created in the project, the project manager will be assigned to the task by default if no other assignee is specified.

This can be configured via the command /settings default_assignee and then selecting the project manager.
