Project Targets
Overview
The Project Targets section is used to manage target data connectors assigned to a specific Project within the DataFloem platform.
While the global Target Module registers and configures target connections across the platform, those targets must first be assigned to a Project before they can be utilized by the Jobs, Code Flows, or SQL Queries within that specific Project.
When a new Project is created, its Target list is empty. Users with appropriate permissions can assign required pre-registered target connectors to the project scope or unassign existing ones as needed.
Access Requirements
To access and manage this page, the user must have the required management permissions for the specific Project and its associated Targets.
Users without the required permission cannot view this page and will receive an authorization error. Users with access can monitor their permission level via the Access Status column for each assigned target.
Managing Project Targets
This page displays all Target connectors currently assigned to the Project.
From this page you can:
- View all assigned Target connectors and their project-level access status.
- Search and filter the assigned Target list.
- Assign existing global Target connectors to the project using the Assign Target button.
-
Remove (unassign) Target connectors from the project using the action
menu (
...). - Toggle between list and grid views for optimal layout visibility.
Target Information Table
The table displays the following information for each assigned Target connector:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Access Status |
Indicates whether the project has been successfully granted access
to use this target (e.g., Granted).
|
| Name / Connection Type | Displays the unique name of the Target connector, with its Connection Type (RDBMS, NoSQL, Cloud Database, Object Storage, etc.) displayed directly below it. |
| Database Name | Name of the connected destination database or storage resource. |
| Database Type / Version | The underlying target database engine (e.g., PostgreSQL, BigQuery, Snowflake) and its specific version tag displayed directly below it. |
| Update Date | Date and time when the target assignment or configuration details were most recently updated. |
| Status |
Operational status of the Target connector (e.g.,
Active).
|
| Actions (...) |
Action menu (...) allowing users to
perform project-level actions such as Unassign.
|
Key Features & Actions
Assign Target
Clicking the Assign Target button opens the assignment interface where you can select and link pre-configured global Target connectors to the current project.
Unassigning a Target
Selecting Unassign from the action menu (...) removes the Target connection from the current project scope. This
action does not delete the global Target configuration from the platform;
it only revokes its availability for the current project.
Notes
- Assigning a target to a project links an existing global target configuration to the project scope; it does not create a new connector instance.
- Unassigning a target only removes it from the current Project's scope. It remains available in the global Target Module for other projects.
-
Ensure that assigned targets have an Access Status of
Grantedand an operational Status ofActiveto prevent execution errors in pipeline flows.
