With Hub projects, you can share information and facilitate engagement around scoped, time-based efforts. Projects are a way to communicate the who, what, where, etc. of real-world work to an internal or external audience. Projects can help you manage, measure, and highlight your work as you track progress towards shared, shorter-term goals.
Hub projects are turned on by default, so no action is needed to start using projects right away. To learn more, read about beta features.
Core team members can create a new project and will be the owner.
Projects are items that appear in the owner’s user profile and in the content library, if shared to a group that powers the library (content group for example).
When you create a project, you can enter a Title, Location (use extent or draw one or more points, lines or areas), Summary (Purpose of project), and Status (pre-determined set of options). After the project is created, you can add a Featured image, Description, Timeline, and Featured content. Categories and Tags are used for searching. You will soon be able to add metrics to show progress or other measurable aspects of the project.
A Hub project will use the theme that is set for the site.
Project owners have edit capabilities as does the core team if the project is shared with them. On the project view, select the edit pencil and you can add or change information in the project workspace, an editing interface that is customized for projects. If a project is shared with a shared update group, any member can edit it.
You can add projects to a gallery card and share projects to the site (content group) for visitors to search and filter (under the 'All' search collection). You can also add a link on the site header or a site button to all projects shared with a site, using the dedicated search page for projects: {siteurl}/projects.
