Manage Project Properties

A Project Property refers to the descriptive data that is associated with an artifact or sub-artifact at the project level.

All Project Properties are created by project administrators for individual projects. Some Project Properties are created by project administrators, and others are automatically added into the project.

To view Project Properties in the Administration Portal, users must have the "View Project Configuration" privilege in their Project Administration role. For more information on Project Administrator Roles, see the Manage Project Administrator Roles article.
