Project key

Does changing Project key in a newly created project/empty project affect anything as mentioned in the documentation

Please advice

Hello @HaRsHaS' V , if it’s an empty project you can just create a new project using “shared configuration” option that way you can chose the project key you want and not lose any project configuration.

@Sachin

Thanks for the reply. I have created the project using shared configuration-however, I had to change the key and I changed it. It went on a project re-index. I was wondering if any links for external applications or anything would be affected.

Note: Its a completely new project and no issues have been updated in it yet.

There won’t be any issue regards to application links Harsha. Just make sure you update your saved filters/webhooks with new project name or key.

@Sachin ..Okay sounds great!.

There are no filters/ or webhooks related to the project currently. As mentioned it is a fresh project. is there anything I am missing with reference to filters or webhooks or anything else?

[Sachin]

I can’t think of anything Harsha! Just make sure you archive the old project so no one uses it (associate it to a read-only permission) scheme or just delete it.

Great! Thanks.. there is no old Project associated with it. I just made the key change to the newly created project. I was worried if there will be any issues in future with filter, links and another others. As per this convo, i dont think they should be any

Thanks!
