1:38 Admin-Data Cleanup 2 min Videos PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Electrical Engineers +1 PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Project Leads Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers This short video demonstrates how to delete items from the platform. To begin, navigate to the Admin Section, and then Bulk and Data Cleanup under Settings, to delete the data. However, it is worth noting that this operation cannot be undone, it may take a while to complete, and will create a workspace snapshot prior to removing the items. Users are able to select specific items for deletion or delete all of the items, once the projects and components are removed. In order to batch delete items, a confirmation is also required.

4:23 BOM Portal Supplier Data Export 4 min Videos PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Electrical Engineers +1 PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Project Leads Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers Altium 365 Bom Portal allows you to upload or create a Bill of Materials for an existing managed design. It can also export an Excel BOM that contains the data from multiple suppliers, including prices. To begin, create a BOM document, and display some favored suppliers for a part. Next, open Excel and create a BOM template using the demonstrated special column queries, before saving and uploading the file into the BOM Portal in Altium Designer. Finally, refresh the page and download the file to view the prices easily for the chosen suppliers and data. Read Article
3:20 Component Tracing 3 min Videos PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Electrical Engineers +1 PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Project Leads Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers This video demonstrates how to use the Altium 365 Component Library to see who created or modified a component in the web interface. It also shows users how to create a list of all components a particular user has created or modified and how to export such a list. To begin, the video uses a capacitor component type to view it's lifecycle, parameters, and models. Also shown are the revisions made to the component, it's history, and who created and revised it. This information is available in Altium Designer in the Components Panel and the Explorer Panel, where the creation data for the part is used to create a list of components by a specific user.

1:50 Events Log 2 min Videos PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Electrical Engineers +1 PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers Project Leads Project Leads Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers This video demonstrates navigating within the events log. The events log showcases user events and data within the workspace in a single access point for data governance. To begin, navigate to the admin tab and the events log link once the Organizational Security Package is enabled. Many types of logged events are visible including additions, removals, workspace member group assignments, component and object data, and data sharing. Event log entries can be searched and filtered by object type as well. The list can be refreshed by typing F5, and an API is also available to transfer event log data to a security information and events management system. Read Article
