Managing Projects in Rill Cloud

Once an organization is created, you can populate it with projects. Each project has its own set of sources, models, metrics views, and explore dashboards. A defined object in a project cannot be shared to another project.

GitHub Integration

Projects can be connected to a GitHub repository for continuous deployment. See GitHub Integration for details on connecting and managing repository connections.

Project​


A project is a single deployed instance from Rill Developer (or what we refer to as a Rill project). Once you have deployed a project to Rill Cloud, you can make changes to it via the CLI or via Rill Cloud.

Checking deployment status​

After deploying to Rill Cloud, if your projects are not quite ready to view yet, you will be navigating to the status page. Here you will be able to see your component's status and if there are any issues with loading or parsing.

Refresh all source and models

You can select the Refresh all sources and models in the Status page or run a full project refresh.


Managing Project settings​

You can also manage project objects in the settings page including public URLs (created in an explore dashboard) and environmental variables. For more information on managing variables, see variables and credentials.


Managing Rill project from CLI​

Managing a project includes the project itself and all components or resources that belong to the project. Via the CLI, you can make changes to the project's properties such as description, public access, etc. Run rill project -h for an overview of available commands.

Refreshing the deployment​

If your project is connected to a GitHub repository, it will automatically redeploy every time you push changes. To manually refresh data sources without pushing code changes (or redeploying your project), run the following command:

rill project refresh [--source/model] (source_name or model_name) [--local]

Checking deployment status​

In case you need to check the project status via the CLI, you can run the following:

rill project status

Make a project public​

Projects on Rill Cloud are private by default. To make a project's dashboards publicly accessible without authentication, run:

rill project edit --public=true
Avoid Sharing Private Data

Warning: If you make a project public, make sure it does not expose any confidential data.
