Creating Folders

A user with an Administrator or Designer role can create folders.

 

    NOTE

Users that log on with a Designer role will have their own personal folder created and displayed on the Workbooks page (e.g., ~designer).

The personal folders:

·         Are displayed and can be accessed for users with an Administrator or Designer role.

·         Are where Designers can create workbooks and build dashboards. For more information, refer to Altair Panopticon Web Authoring Guide on how to create workbooks on the Web client.

 

Steps:

1.     On the Workbooks tab, right-click on the topmost folder, and select New Folder.

 

    NOTE

Only Administrators are allowed to change the permissions on the root folder.

 

The Create Folder dialog displays.

 

    NOTE

·         Everyone is available in the Allowed section by default.

·         Removing the Everyone group will mean that the folder and its subfolders will not be available for public access.

·         The default group permissions on the root folder are WRITE + READ.

 

2.     Enter a Folder Name.

3.     Proceed to defining the Authorization to Allowed or Denied groups and users.

4.     Click .

The new folder is displayed on the expanded Folder hierarchy list and on the Root Folder list.

 

   NOTE

·        Folders and subfolders can be deleted if they do not contain published workbooks.

·        The folders and subfolders on the Workbooks page will also be available on the Data Library, Webhooks, and Themes pages.
