Create a new project

  1. In Admin Console, on the Documents Tree, right-click Projects and click New Project.
  2. Enter a name for the new project and click OK.
  3. Select an option for the project.
    1. Create blank project: Creates a new blank project.
    2. Add Existing: Adds an existing project to your current version of Insight.
    3. Import from file: Imports a project from a file.
      This file is a previously exported Insight project file (from Studio) in ZIP format (do not extract the project file). If importing from a file, select the file to import.
      Note You can import an Analytics project file (such as KAFTA.zip or KAFC.zip) here. See Create a solution in Studio to import.

      When creating a new project, we recommend that the Meta database be named as <ProjectName>_meta (without any spaces) and the Data database as <ProjectName>_data (again, without spaces), such as Test_meta and Test_data.

    4. Optionally, click the Advanced button to define additional parameters for a connection string.
    5. Use the Same server as the meta database check box to copy the same server connection credentials (server name, User name and password) to the Data database section.
      Note You cannot connect to these databases until the tables are created. Tables are created when you save the project.
    6. To use a Staging database, select Use Staging DB and fill in the information (Optional).
  4. Click OK.

    The databases are created.
