Create a Project
Introduction
Welcome to Flywheel! This quick start guide explains how to set up a project in Flywheel so you can start adding data.
In Flywheel, a project is a way to organize data from an experiment or other collection of subject data.
Instruction Steps
-
Click New Project.
-
Select one of your groups from the list. Only groups where you have create permissions appear in this list.
-
Give your project a name
Tip
A project name needs to be unique to the group it's created in.
-
Click Create.
A success message appears and your project appears in the list.
Create a project template to simplify creating new projects
Create a project template to add a default list of users and their roles to each project within a group. This helps ensure the appropriate users are added each time a new project is created.
Troubleshooting

- Select your profile picture in the top right corner.
-
Click Manage Site. The left-navigation bar now has a "Side Admin Mode" banner and you can now see all projects on your site.
-
Go to the project and select
