A fundamental requirement of CONNECT is the creation of projects. Only users with "Project Manager" and "Administrator" level role on their profile are allowed to create projects. Contact your account administrator to add projects or assign you rights to add projects yourself. See the Managing User Rights Section below. Projects are typically added to the Bentley registry for your company through any of the links on the Project Portal, Personal Portal or Project Chooser Dialog window.

Register Project from Project Portal

Right-Click the Bentley CONNECT icon in your taskbar and select "Personal Portal".

In the Personal Portal, select "Projects", this will take you to the "Project Portal".

In the "Project Portal, click "Register a Project" to add a new project. See the section "Managing User Rights" if you do not have the rights to add a project.

The project attributes should be entered accurately to obtain the greatest value from CONNECT. Content, recommendation and insight services are based specifically on the Asset type, industry and location.

Register Project from Personal Portal

Right-Click the Bentley CONNECT icon in your taskbar and select "Personal Portal". Hint, you can also navigate to the Personal Portal from the CONNECT widget in ContextCapture cloud service console.

Select the "+New" in the Recent Projects tile to Register a New Project. See the section "Managing User Rights" if you do not have the rights to add a project.

Register Project from Project Chooser Window

The project Chooser window is accessible from the "New" page in ContextCapture cloud processing console. To register a new project, select the +Register Project link on the upper left of the Project Chooser.
