Projects Workspace Overview
Use the Projects workspace to manage projects and folders and assign permissions on projects and folders. The projects and folders appear in the Projects panel.
A project is the top-level container that you use to store folders and repository content. You can also store assets in the Analyst tool in projects. Use projects to organize and manage folders and assets.
Use folders to organize project contents. Create folders to group assets based on business needs. You can create a folder in a project or in another folder. When you create a project or folder, the Analyst tool stores the project or folder in the Model repository.
For example, you need to assess data quality on multiple systems structured by region in a country. You create projects named East and West to correspond with data for East and West regions. You create folders named Customers and Accounts in the East and West projects to organize the data in these projects. You can import assets such as table objects and flat file objects in the Customers and Accounts folders.
