How to Modify the Account ID within Project Settings

This section describes how to change or modify your account ID within the Project Settings.


Open the Project Settings

Expand the Project Settings on the Schema App Homepage

Note: In this example, we are changing the Account ID for the Base Project. See the Considerations section for additional guidance on changing Sub-Project settings.


Expand the Advanced Settings at the bottom of the Project Settings.


Select the "Edit" Button

Click "Edit" to be able to make modifications to the Account ID


Note: When changing the Account ID for Sub-Projects, you cannot change the Account ID for the Base Project (E.g. For http://schemaapp.com/db/BaseProject/SubProject, only the SubProject text can be modified)



Change the Account ID 

Enter the Account ID you want to use in the text field. 


Select "Done" and "Save"

Selecting "Done" will save the change to the string and selecting "Save" will save all your Project Settings.



Considerations for Changing Your Account ID

Changing the base project Account ID

Changing the Base Project Account ID will change ALL the sub-project AccountIDs (e.g Changing http://schemaapp.com/db/BaseProject to http://schemaapp.com/db/NewBaseProject will result in the Sub-Project Account ID changing from http://schemaapp.com/db/BaseProject/SubProject to http://schemaapp.com/db/NewBaseProject/SubProject.


Note: You will need to update all the integration scripts or plugins associated with your Base Project and all your Sub-Projects


Changing sub-project Account IDs

Changing the sub-project Account IDs will only modify the sub-project itself. 


Note: You will need to update the integration script or plugin associated wtih the Sub-Project you changed.
