Project Settings

Only Project Administrators are able to edit Project Settings (accessed via the side navigation bar).

General Settings

Settings are grouped into Project Details, Visibility & Access, Advanced Settings and Danger Zone. Each setting has its own Save button; saving one setting does not save edits in another. In the general project settings, Project Administrators can edit:

  • Project name
  • Project description
  • Project visibility & access
  • Contact email
  • Protocol Url
  • Keywords

Visibility & Access

Private projects are joined by invitation only. Whereas public projects can be configured to require approval by a project admin.

By default projects will require approval from a project admin to join the project. Project access requirements can be changed by going to Project Settings > General > Advanced Settings and enabling/disabling ‘Require approval for joining project’.

Disabling approval for public projects will allow any user to join your project and start reviewing without explicit approval, which is not recommended for sensitive projects.

Changing Ownership

Under ‘Advanced Settings’ project owners can change project ownership.

Warning: Be aware that by changing the project owner, you will lose the ownership of the project. The new owner will be able to delete the project without approval.

Delete a Project

To delete a project, scroll down to the Danger Zone in Project Settings and click Delete Project. The existing confirmation dialog must be completed before deletion. Please be aware that data from deleted projects cannot be recovered, this action is irreversible.

Membership

Note that in SyRF projects there are two project groups: Reviewers and Administrators. Click here to read more about User Roles. Only project administrators can change a project member’s project group.

Question Design

Project Administrators can add and delete annotation questions in their project on this page. These questions can be then assigned to annotation stages. For more information, go to Annotation.

Information and warnings

Information boxes use a leading icon and optional title as well as color: blue info explains a setting, amber alert calls for attention, and red warning identifies serious risk. Dark mode uses dark tonal backgrounds and contrasting text. Existing warning boxes keep their red warning meaning.
