Control Center adding a project

Hey community,

We somehow have a project that is not attached to Control Center. It appears it was rolled out with everything (folders, sheets, reports, Dashboard) but it's not getting the same global updates as the rest of the projects and it's becoming a very manual management. Once noticing the lack of updates it was getting, sure enough we have 72 projects and only 71 are in Control Center. Is there any way to retroactively add this project and its folders to Control Center? Or do I have to create a duplicate project to have it be included in future global updates?

    hi @AshAddington,

    I do not think there is an option to add any project into blueprint without proper provisioning.

    The fastest way would be just to make a copy of the current project. Provision it (so it will be part of SCC) and then just copy the data inside the sheets (so reports/dashboard will be updated automatically).

    Hope this helps.

  • Thank you! I ended up unchecking "Provisioned in CC" and creating the project from there. Since it was already on the Control Center Intake sheet 2 years ago, does that mean that there were too many changes to call it the "same template", thus why I couldn't include it in global updates? Or do changes not affect its Blueprint status.
