The User Projects page in the Admin Console lets administrators review every project on the account, filter and sort across them, unlock locked projects, and transfer project ownership. This page is available to Account Admins and Alternate Admins only.
Accessing the User Projects page
- Open the Account menu.
- Select Admin Console.
- Open the User Projects tab.
If you do not see this tab, your role does not have Admin or Alternate Admin permissions. Contact your Account Admin to request access.
Page layout
The User Projects list is organized into five columns:
- Project Name — the project name, with a folder sublabel when the project belongs to a folder, and an expand/collapse chevron when the project has Concurrent Working (CW) branches.
- Collaborators — the users assigned to each project.
- Updated — the date and time the project was last modified.
- Created — the date the project was created.
- Actions — administrative actions available on the project (for example, Unlock).
Row checkboxes and the Select all control on the left, along with the Transfer to the user button at the top, are used for bulk ownership transfers.
Finding projects by name
The Project Name column header includes a search input that filters the list in real time as you type.
- Matching is case-insensitive and looks for the text anywhere in the project name.
- Folder paths are part of the project name string (for example, Demos/dbt manifest), so typing a folder name such as Demos returns every project inside that folder.
- The search also matches CW branch names. If a branch matches, its parent project is shown automatically and expanded so you can see the matching branch.
- Clear the input to restore the full project list.
Filtering by collaborator
The Collaborators column header includes a multi-select filter for narrowing the list to projects shared with specific users.
- Open the Collaborators filter dropdown.
- Use the search field to find a user, or scroll the list. The dropdown lists every user on the account, not only those visible on the current page.
- Check one or more users to apply the filter.
Multiple selections are combined with OR logic — a project is shown if any of the selected users is a collaborator on it. To clear the filter, deselect all users.
When the Project Name search and the Collaborators filter are both active, they are combined with AND logic — a project must match both to appear in the list.
Sorting
Click any sortable column header to sort the list. Clicking again toggles between ascending and descending order.
- Project Name (sortable) — default sort, ascending (A → Z).
- Updated (sortable) — matches the Dashboard format and value.
- Created (sortable).
- Actions (sortable) — first click groups locked projects at the top, followed by unlocked projects; both groups are sorted alphabetically.
- Collaborators is not sortable.
CW branches are always sorted alphabetically (A → Z) inside their parent project, regardless of the page-level sort.
Concurrent Working (CW) branches
Projects that have Concurrent Working branches show a collapse/expand chevron next to the project name. CW branches are grouped under their parent project and are hidden by default.
- Click the chevron on a project row to expand it and reveal the branches.
- Branches appear as indented child rows beneath the parent and show their own Updated value.
- Branches are sorted alphabetically and are not affected by the page-level sort.
Project folders
If a project belongs to a folder, the folder name is displayed as a secondary label directly beneath the project name. Projects without a folder show only the project name. Folder names are part of the project name string, so they are searchable from the Project Name filter described above.
Transferring project ownership
Use the row checkboxes to select one or more projects, then press Transfer to the user at the top of the page to reassign ownership. The Select all control selects every visible row in the current view.
For step-by-step guidance, see Project transferring in the related articles below.
Unlocking a project
When a project is locked, the Actions column on that row shows an Unlock link. Press Unlock to release the lock and allow other users to edit the project.
