Create and manage projects

You can create and manage projects in Motiff to streamline collaboration and maintain organization across your team.

Motiff enables you to efficiently create, move, and manage projects, ensuring a smooth and productive workflow for all collaborators.

Create a new project

If you have Can edit or higher permissions for the team, you can create projects within the team. You can create a new project in the following two ways:

  • Hover the cursor over the team name in the sidebar. An https://motiff.fbcontent.cn/public/resource/cms/image/y6o8khbp2.svg will appear to the right of the team name. Click it to create a project. 'create projects.png'
  • Enter the team and click + Project. 'create projects 2.png'

Assign project permissions

You can assign permissions for all team members in the project, or you can invite additional members individually.

  • Assign permissions for all team members:

    • Inherited permissions: Allows all team members to have the same permissions at the project level as they do at the team level. This is the project's default setting for team members.
    • Can edit: All team members can edit the project.
    • Can view: All team members can view the project.
    • Remove: No team member can access the project. 'assign project permissions.png'
  • Invite members individually:

    • Enter the name or email in the popup to find users.
    • Click https://motiff.fbcontent.cn/public/resource/cms/image/slt6jjfzy.svg to select permission for the member.
    • Click Send invite and the user will join the project.
    • Members who have joined the project can be viewed in the member list below. 'invite members individually.png'

You can rename a project in the workspace in the following two ways:

Delete a project

In Motiff, once a project is deleted, it will be removed from the workspace of all collaborators.

Deleting a project will also move all files within the project to Trash. Projects cannot be restored, but files can be recovered.

You can delete a project in the workspace in the following two ways:

  • Right-click the project name in the sidebar, select Delete from the menu, and click Delete project to delete the project. 'Delete a project-01.png'
  • Click at the top right corner of the project page, select Delete from the menu, and confirm to delete the project. 'Delete a project-02.png'

Tip: To recover deleted files, restore them from Trash and move them to a new project.

Move a project

Note: When moving a project between teams, individually assigned permissions stay the same. However, team permissions will update to match the new team, and members of the original team may lose access.

If you have Can edit or higher permissions on the project and its belonging team, you can move the project.
