Create and Manage Projects The Projects page is your portal to Create new GraphXR projects, review existing projects, and manage shared projects. Review details of your GraphXR account, link to GraphXR information, send feedback to Kineviz, and access user communities. Projects Page On the Projects page, projects are initially displayed as tiles organized in the following sections: Recent Projects, the projects you recently opened. My Projects, projects you’ve created, and a Create tile or button. Create From Sandbox, pre-configured projects you can review and copy. Sandboxes can help you quickly create and leverage projects for demos, tutorials, and specific workflows. Shared Projects, the projects other users share with you. Demo Projects, limited demonstration projects that you can explore. The display icon at the far right of the Recent Projects section toggles to a more compact list layout. Create a Project You can create and configure a new GraphXR project and optionally connect it to an external or internal database. To create a project: Click Create, either at the top of the Projects page or at the bottom of the My Projects section. In the Create New Project dialog: Enter a descriptive Project Name in the text box. In Apply Template, either leave the default None, or select a template from the menu. Templates specify colors, icons and other UI configuration settings for easy re-use. Select the Database Type from the dropdown menu and click Confirm. None creates a project that’s not connected to an external database or the default internal database. You can import and model data in formats such as CSV, SQL and JSON, and import graph data via GXRF files, Snapshot archives, and more. Simply drag and drop files directly, or use GraphXR’s Mapping Editor for initial graph modeling. Internal Data Store is the default. It creates an empty Kuzu graph database connected to the project. This lets you import and/or model graph data in the project, save it in the persistent internal graph database, and export the entire database for archival. External Graph Database options connect a project to an existing external graph database. Options include Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Spanner and BigQuery property graphs, Neo4j, Puppygraph, Memgraph, Ultipa Graph, Galaxy Base, NebulaGraph, and Oracle Graph. With a Database Type of None or Internal Data Store, the project is automatically created and opened. For connection to an existing external database, the Create New Project dialog shows the additional details needed to confirm connection to your database. Most options require: Hostname (or IP) BOLT port - a default is shown for most options. Username Password Database Name You may also need to verify that your external database is running before trying to connect to it. For GCP Spanner and Big Query property graphs, a connection wizard guides you through a detailed secure deployment process which ends by opening the project. You can also connect through the GraphXR Database Proxy, designed to securely connect GraphXR to various backend databases. An API url is required. To see that the new project now appears under My Projects, you need to exit the project and return to the Projects page. Click the Kineviz logo at the lower left and choose Home from the menu. Work with Existing Projects A tile or list item includes information and tools to review and configure a project: Project name Database badge showing the database type connected to the project (if any), e.g. NEO4J, SPAN (Spanner Graph), PUPPY (Puppygraph), KUZU (for the internal project database), etc. Sandbox badge on pre-configured sandbox projects. Icons to edit and share the project: Delete (trash can) deletes the project, its saved views and internal graph database (but not data in an external connected graph database). Edit project name, template, and/ or database type. Configuration Index to configure the database search index, if available. Switch DB to switch the project to a different database of the current type. Clone to create a duplicate of the project. Enable / Disable Sharing to share the entire project or one of its views with another user. Clicking the Lock icon displays: UI Configuration, to configure user interface elements the sharing user sees, for example, to limit features to only those needed for collaboration. Invite, to send an email invitation to share the entire project. Share, to open the shared project, or select one of its views and generate iframe code that you can include in a report, proposal, or other communication. The date the project was Created, and the date it was last Opened. The dates are shown on the list but not on tiles. Search for a Project To find a specific project, you can: Use the Search bar at the top of the page to find one or more projects by name. Use the dropdown menu in the My Projects section to sort projects by Project name Date created Date last opened Update, Clone, or Delete a Project A project is configured according to the template applied (if any) and other default settings. You can change these details at any time. In a Project tile or list item, click: Delete (trash can) to delete a project. This deletes the GraphXR project with its internal data store and saved views, but not the data in a connected external database. Before deleting a project, you should consider exporting its data views and internal database. Edit to display the Edit Project dialog and change the project name, template, and/ or database type. Configuration Index (settings icon) to configure the database search index. The icon appears only for the search configuration (if any) available for the connected database. Switch DB to switch the project to a different database of the current type. Clone to create a duplicate of the project, optionally including its Grove notebooks. Enable and Configure Project sharing You can share an entire project with other GraphXR users. To collaborate with those who don’t have a GraphXR account, share individual views securely via iframe. In a Project tile or list item, click Enable / Disable Sharing (Lock icon) to show the additional icons for sharing the entire project or one of its views with another user: UI Configuration, to configure user interface elements the sharing user sees, for example, to limit features to only those needed for collaboration or reports. Invite, to send an email invitation to share the entire project. Share, to open the shared project, or select one of its views and generate iframe code that you can include in an email, report, proposal, or other communication.
