Creating and Managing Categories

Categories are used to organize projects. Users can use categories in order to filter projects in the appliance library.

Creating Custom Categories

To create custom categories using GUI:

  1. Under the Administration tab, click Categories.
  2. If you are an administrator to more than one organization, then you can choose the organization to administer from the drop-down menu.
  3. Enter the name of the category you want to add.
  4. Click add.

Deleting Categories

If you want to limit the list of categories users can see and use, you can delete unwanted categories. To delete categories:

  1. Under the Administration tab, click Categories.
  2. If you are an administrator to more than one organization, then you can choose the organization to administer from the drop-down menu.
  3. Select the categories you no longer want.
  4. Click delete.
  5. Click confirm in the pop-up window.

Note

If you want to delete all category customizations, click on reset. This will delete all the custom categories you created; however, this will also add any other default categories you might have deleted.

The available commands are:

  • category create
