Administration of the Documentation service

In this article, you will find the information that will help you administer your project’s documentation.

Accessing administration

Go to the project’s documents service to access the administration from the top menu.

Tuleap project interface displaying document management options and file listings.

You are then taken to the configuration page, where several tabs are available.

Administration interface showing search criteria and displayed columns for document management.

“Search” tab

Administration panel displaying search criteria and displayed columns for document management.

This tab allows you to select which search criteria you want to display in your documentation, as well as the data columns you want to include.

"Permissions” tab

Document management permissions for user groups in the Tuleap administration interface.

This tab allows you to manage user group permissions for the project documentation globally. The settings made in this tab override the permissions defined in the Document Manager menu (see the dedicated article).

“Properties” tab

Administration panel displaying document properties and options for creating new properties.

In this tab, define the details of the properties that will be filled in when creating your document.

You can also import properties from any project you have access to.

“Obsolete documents” tab

Administration page displaying obsolete documents and project status information.

Here you will find all documents whose obsolescence date has passed. The project administrator must have enabled the ‘Obsolescence date’ field.

Subsequently, it will be possible to specify, for each document, the date from which the document should be considered obsolete (see the “Properties” tab).

“Locked documents” tab

Overview of locked documents in the project administration interface with no documents listed.

“Reserved” documents are those that have been locked by a user. This means that no one else can modify the document (see the article on project documentation permissions).

“Filename pattern” tab

Document administration interface showing filename pattern and variable descriptions for file management.

This tab is very useful for ensuring consistent and standardized naming of documentation for your project. It allows better tracking of documents and makes them easier to find during searches.
