Administration
The Administration area is where you shape your ArchForge workspace: its name and branding, which artifact types are in use, the templates they start from, the reference lists people pick from, and who has access.
Who can use it
Only members with the Admin or Owner role can open the Administration area. Everyone else who tries to visit an admin page is sent back to the dashboard, and every admin change is checked again on the server. See Members and roles for what each role can do.
Getting there
- In the app, look at the bottom of the left sidebar, just above your user card.
- Click Admin. The sidebar switches to the admin navigation and opens the Organization page.
- When you're done, click ← Application at the top of the sidebar to return to your artifacts.
The admin sidebar has four sections:
| Section | What you do there |
|---|---|
| Organization | Set the workspace name, tint color, and artifact prefix. See Workspace settings. |
| Artifact Types | Turn artifact types on or off and edit their templates. See Artifact types and templates. |
| Users & Roles | Invite people, change roles, and remove access. See Members and roles. |
| Lists | Curate the values used in the application catalog. See Managed lists. |
Changes in the Administration area take effect immediately for everyone in the workspace.
