Projects

Background & Definitions

In Consibio Cloud a project is an environment in which data is organised and controlled.

We sometimes refer to it as a “data sandbox”, where you can manage information, users, roles etc. about the data and also run specific tasks / features like Alarms, Controllers and so on.

An example of a project, could be “Consibio Office”. In this project, the members of can see information from sensors placed in the physical office and get access to all of the features available from Consibio Cloud.
Another example could be “My Greenhouse 11”, where all information from my greenhouse would be accessible and I could control who in my company should be able to see it.

Inside a Consibio Cloud Project

From the home screen, a user can tap into a project by clicking on the project name from the project overview table.
Once inside a project, the user can access everything related to this specific projects under the various tabs/sections presented (On mobile-version, these can be accessed by tapping the “More” button).

The tabs available inside a Consibio Cloud Project are:

• Dashboard
• Controllers
• Alarms
• Members
• Settings

The Dashboard, Controllers and Alarms sections are described in their respective documentation pages, since they are features requiring detailed descriptions, but the project Members and project Settings are described below.

Project Members

Roles

In the Members section / tab, all members associated with the project can be seen in the members table.
Their respective roles can also be seen. Depending on the role, the user has certain permissions and features available. As an example, a user with a viewer-role cannot edit the controllers within a project.

Currently, there are three types of roles that a user can have within a project:

1. Owner
2. Editor
3. Viewer

The exact differences between each role is described in the table below:
