Register a ProjectWise Project

The first step in using any of the ProjectWise 365 services in the CONNECT Center is to register (create) a ProjectWise project for your organization. You can register as many projects as you need.

Note: This task assumes that your organization is already registered with Bentley and that you already have a Bentley profile (a Bentley IMS account). To register a project you must have Administrator or Co-administrator privileges associated with your Bentley profile.

Go to the CONNECT Center (https://connect.bentley.com) and sign in (enter the credentials of your Bentley IMS account).
Under ProjectWise Projects, click + (Register a new project).

Fill out the Register a Project form as needed. Required fields are marked with an asterisk ("*").

The Team Member Management dialog opens, with the message:

Note that the services available to Project Team Members (including external participants) may require Bentley CONNECTIONS Passports or Visas. If an external participant is from a non-Bentley-user organization and is not yet a Passport holder or does not have the necessary Visa, then you will be responsible for their usage, which will be automatically included into your organization's usage report.

Are you sure you would like to continue registering this project?
Click Yes in the Team Member Management dialog.

You can now turn on ProjectWise Deliverables Management in this ProjectWise project. Also, in ProjectWise Explorer you can now associate a work area with this ProjectWise project.
