Creating a Project
FlexNet Code Insight 2019 R1
You must create a project in FlexNet Code Insight before you can scan data and generate reports. Use the following procedure to create a project.
Important • You can create projects only if the Administrator has granted you permission to do so, as described in the “Configuring FlexNet Code Insight” chapter in the “FlexNet Code Insight Installation and Configuration Guide”. The Add New button referenced in the following procedure is available only if you have this permission.
To create a project, do the following:
|
1.
|
Click the Open Menu icon in the upper right of any FlexNet Code Insight page: |
|
2.
|
Select Projects from the menu. The Projects page appears. In FlexNet Code Insight, a project represents an application version or release that contains a codebase to be scanned. |
|
3.
|
Click Add New and select Project from the pulldown menu. The Add Project dialog appears. |
|
4.
|
Complete the following fields on the Add Project dialog: |
|
•
|
Name—Type a name for the new project. |
|
•
|
Project Type—From the dropdown menu, select the type of scan that will be run on this project: |
|
•
|
Standard—This is the default scan type. It requires that you upload your codebase to FlexNet Code Insight scan server or configure version-control settings to synchronize the codebase to the server. Refer to Selecting Materials to Scan in this chapter for information about uploading your codebase or to the Configuring Source Code Management chapter for information about synchronizing your codebase with to server. |
|
•
|
Inventory Only—This type of scan allows for remote scanning and does not require a codebase on the FlexNet Code Insight scan server. To learn more about inventory-only projects, see the Performing Inventory-Only Scanning chapter. |
|
•
|
Project Visibility—Select one of the project visibility options from the dropdown menu. |
|
•
|
Public—All users in the system can view and change the project. This is the default value for this field. |
Note • The Project Visibility setting can also be accessed through the Edit Project option on the Manage Project menu on the Summary tab. For more information, see Editing the Project Definition and General Settings.
|
•
|
Policy Profile—From the dropdown menu, select a policy profile to be used for this project. If you do not select a policy profile, the Default License Policy Profile will be used. For more information about policy profiles, see Managing Policy Profiles. |
The new project appears in the list of projects. At this point, the panes in the right panel will not contain data or graphs. If you created a Standard project, you will have to upload a codebase and scan it before data and graphs appear. To upload a codebase, see Selecting Materials to Scan.
Additionally, if you want to change the currently assigned scan profile, see the later section, Applying a Scan Profile.
