Show and Hide Asset Types and Subtypes for a Project

Background

Asset Types are created at the company level and are available across projects. Project Asset Admins can override Asset Type IDs at the project level to use IDs that are better suited to the specific requirements of their project.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions

  • Each custom Asset Type ID must be unique within the project. 

  • Hiding a parent Asset Type hides all its sub-types. An Asset Type cannot be hidden if assets of that type already exist on the project.

  • Creating new asset types remains a Company level capability. To learn more, see Create Assets in the Company Assets Tool.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the Project level Assets tool.

  2. Click the Configure Settings Icon Settings Gear Grey3 icon.

  3. Click the Asset Type tab.

  4. Locate the Asset Type you want to show or hide.

  5. Under the 'Visibility' column, update the checkbox to change the visibility.

    • To show: Mark the checkbox.

    • To hide: Clear the checkbox.
