A '''project''' is the top-level container in RefractSurvey. Every survey, every access code, and every uploaded image belongs to exactly one project.

== Why projects exist ==

If you're working on more than one game, or you want to keep an internal team survey cleanly separate from a public playtest, projects are how you do that. There's no limit on how many you can create, and no per-project fee — see [[RefractSurvey_Cost_Breakdown|Cost Breakdown]].

A brand new install starts with none; you create your first one as the last step of the install wizard (see [[RefractSurvey_Getting_Started|Getting Started]]).

== Creating a project ==

From '''Manage > Projects''', click '''New project''' and give it a name and (optionally) a short description. Right after creating it, you'll be shown a checklist of every other active user on your install so you can immediately decide who else should be able to access it — this is purely additive, so it's a fast way to grant a whole team access at once without visiting each person's account individually.

== Switching between projects ==

If you have access to more than one project, a dropdown in the top navigation bar lets you switch which one is "current." Most of the app (Surveys, Media Library, Import) works within whichever project is currently selected.

== Deactivating a project ==

Projects can be deactivated rather than deleted — useful once a game has shipped and you don't need to keep collecting feedback for it, but still want to keep the historical responses around.

== Who can see this ==

Whether someone can see or manage a project at all depends on both their permissions and whether they've specifically been granted access to that project — see [[RefractSurvey_Permissions_and_Roles|Permissions and Roles]] for the full picture. [[RefractSurvey_Templates|Templates]] are the one exception: they're shared across every project on the install rather than belonging to just one.
