How to Add or Remove a Feed from a Project
In Buildcam, a camera is a feed, and feeds can belong to one or more projects. This guide shows how to add a feed to a project and remove it again.
How to Add or Remove a Feed from a Project
In Buildcam, a camera is represented by a feed, and a feed can belong to one or more projects. Adding a feed to a project replaces the old "associate a controller with an installation" step; removing it replaces "disassociate".
Removing a feed from a project does not delete the feed, its settings, or its images — it simply stops the feed appearing in that project.
To swap out a faulty controller mid-project with a spare, see Replacing a Faulty Controller Mid-Project.
Add a feed to a project
- Go to Feeds and open the feed you want to add.
- Open the Projects tab.
- Click Add to project.
- Choose the project from the list and click Add to project.
You can also add feeds from the Feeds list: select one or more feeds and choose Add to Project. When adding brand-new hardware through Add feed, you can attach it straight away using the Add to project field.
Adding and removing feeds is an Org Admin action — the controls appear for Org Admins.
Remove a feed from a project
- Go to Feeds, open the feed, and select the Projects tab.
- On the project's row, open the ⋯ menu and choose Remove from project.
- Confirm the removal.
The feed (and all of its images) remains on your account and in any other projects it belongs to. To wind a project down entirely, see concluding a project.
