Switching Projects

Your organization’s assets are grouped into projects to give you visibility and control. Selecting a project is required for creating, enabling, and using Fabric and Network Edge services.

Projects store and organize your Network Edge assets such as virtual devices and connections into logical groups.

Using Equinix Platform (IAM):

Users of Network Edge who use Equinix Fabric ports and participate in Equinix Platform (IAM) can use the Context Switcher to set or change the project they work with in Network Edge. Only assets within the selected project are shown. For more information, see Identity and Access Management.

Asset Organization

Before creating a connection or ordering a virtual device, select a project in the drop-down at the top of the page. When you create a connection or order a device, these new assets will be assigned to you.

Note: To create or edit a project, you must have the correct permissions. If you need help, contact your organization’s Primary Admin, Organization Admin, or Project Admin.

Switch Between Projects

Depending on your permissions, you can view your organization hierarchy and shared assets by selecting Identity and Access Management (IAM) under the menu icon. Use the Context Switcher to set or change the project you work with in Fabric. If you don’t see the asset you’re looking for, it could be in a different project.

Note: Additional Equinix products and services are added as they become available.

Identity and Access Management (IAM)
