Project Configurations

Project Configurations brings you a new way to customize Guardian’s behavior and protections for each project file. These ‘Templates’ can be used on different project types or disciplines. Each template will have its own unique set of settings and protections while still being able to be maintained globally.  

Why you need Project Configurations

This feature takes Guardian a step further and gives more power to administrators to customize and maintain Guardian features on a more granular level.  

Customize Project Configurations

Project Configurations can be found under the Settings within the Guardian Add-In tab.

Within Project Configurations, templates can be added or modified.

Add New Project Configuration dialog

When upgrading to the newest version of Guardian, your Company Settings will automatically be transferred into a new template called Company Default. This is done to help with smooth transitions into this new release.  

The Project Configurations can also be locked from editing by any Project Administrators. Only Company Administrators have the ability to enable/disable the locked feature. Any Project Configurations that are locked will be shown with a lock icon.  

Project Configurations can also be designated with the star icon to mark them as the default option when files are registered manually. For more information on manually registering files, see Project Registration.

Project Configurations can either be applied to existing registered models through the Projects dialog or to newly registered models through the Project Registration Rules.  

The Allow screenshots option can be disabled to prevent screenshots from being collected for Administrator notifications on end user activity of monitored commands and protections.
