Project Settings

 

Manage default project settings for all projects in your organization.

 

 

 


Security

In the Security Tab, you are able to:

  • View your SSO Status. More on SSO here: Single Sign On (SSO)
  • Enforce users to sign in to view shared data.

Require sign-in to view shared data

Only signed-in users who have been invited as editors will be able to access shared organization data. This effectively disables the ability to publicly share data in your org, meaning you will be able to track who has access to your data at all times.

Note: This setting restricts users from sharing View-Only links and also blocks the ability to download media, including panoramas and videos.

 


User Table

In the User tab of the Organization section, Admins and Owners can view the membership statuses of all users at a glance.
 

 

At the top of the user table, you'll find the total number of users linked to your organization, including those you've designated as pilots, analysts, and viewers. Any users who aren’t part of your organization but have access to your projects will appear as “External User."

Managing Users and Permissions in your Organization

 


Activity Logs

Use the activity log to track progress and actions taken in your organization. This tab will show:

  • The email of the user
  • The action they took (i.e., uploaded, deleted, shared)
  • The project it happened on
  • The object type (plan, folder)
  • Object name (plan name, such as Photo Plan 1)
  • Any additional details
  • Date and Time of the action

Note: Use the Generate CSV option in the top right to download your activity log!

Actions tracked include:

  • Flights flown
  • Data sets uploaded
  • Maps shared
  • Maps deleted
  • Maps exported
  • Folders shared
  • Folders deleted
     

Data Viewer

The data viewer provides access to all data within your organization, regardless of the creator. Data is displayed by most recent modification date and includes the following:
 
  • Plan Name
  • Owner
  • Date Created
  • Date Updated
  • Date Processed
  • Map Area
  • Status
  • Whether there are any shared users

As an Admin user, you are able to view that data even if it hasn't been shared with you by clicking on the name of the map. This will take you to the Data Page. If you'd like to see this map on your Dashboard, then add yourself as a shared user.
 


Application Management

In this section, an Owner or Admin can remove any applications they have installed for their entire DroneDeploy user base. If you'd like to add an app to your user base, you will need to do that in the app market. For more information, check out Installing Organization-Wide Apps
