Curate projects

Curation lets you limit the components (dimensions, metrics, filters, date ranges) before sharing a project. When a recipient opens the project, they will see a limited set of components that you have curated for them. Curation is an optional but recommended step before sharing a project.

NOTE
Product profiles are the primary mechanism governing which components a user can see. They are managed through the Adobe Experience Cloud Admin Console. Curation is a secondary filter.

Apply project curation

  1. Click Share > Curate Project Data.
    The components that are used in the project will automatically be added.
  2. (Optional) To add more components, drag components you want to share from the left rail to the Curate Components field.
  3. Click Done.

Curation can also be applied from the Share menu by clicking Curate and Share. This option automatically curates the project to the components in use in the project. You can add additional components following the steps above.

Curated project view

When a recipient opens a curated project, they will only see the curated set of components you have defined:

Remove project curation

To remove project curation and restore the full set of components in the left rail:

  1. Click Share > Curate Project Data.
  2. Click Remove Curation.
  3. Click Done.

Component curation options

In a curated project, the recipient will be presented with the option to Show All components in the left rail. Show All reveals different sets of components, depending on:

  • The user’s permission level (admin or non-admin)
  • Project role (owner/editor or not)
  • Type of curation applied (at the project level)
