How to Create a Project
A Project in knowHOW is a collection of data from all configured tools for the project. Its not mandatory to configure all tools for any project but its recommended to configure atleast one PM tool, either Jira or Azure boards.
There are no limitation for adding devops tools and profiles, one project can have one or more build, SCM and Sonar profiles configured.
Project once created, cant be edited for names or hierarchy. Configured tools or their configuration can be added/edited any number of times.
knowHOW only allows to enter a name for project, all other hierarchy information need to be selected from data pre-populated from PS CRM system.
Any logged in user can create a project and by default creater of project is assigned project admin role for that project.
knowHOW project dont support data collection from multiple Jira/Azure board in to one knowHOW project.
Once project is created, navigate to project listing page and click the
icon to add the connections and configuration for the project.

Enable Individual KPI’s (Button) | Enable/Disable the button based on project preferences. User can enable it to allow KnowHOW Jira Processor to fetch the people related information (ex- assignees). | If the user decides to keep this button disabled during project creation, they retain the option to enable it later at any time. However, once enabled, the button cannot be disabled within the application. Consequently, if you want to stop sharing people's information, you will be required to set up the project again, starting from step 1. |
