Creating a Project

A project stores the analysis results from a scanned codebase. You must create a project in Code Insight before you can scan data and generate reports.

To create a new project:

  1. From the Dashboard page, click the Go to Project link or select Projects from the menu. The Projects page opens.
  2. Click Add New and select Project from the menu. The Add Project dialog box opens.
  3. In the Name field, enter a name to identify the project.
  4. From the Project Visibility list, select Public. This selection, the default, allows everyone with access to the Code Insight to view the new project.
  5. From the Scan Server list, select the scan server to be used for scanning the codebase for this project.
  6. Click Save. The project name is now listed in the Projects pane. At this point, the Project Dashboard area will not contain data. You must upload a codebase and scan it before data and charts appear.
  7. Proceed with the steps in Uploading a Codebase.
