Hello DataIKU friends,
I would like to enforce better documentation standard across our DSS project, one way I would like to do this is by having a "template" project description which each author completes, which follows a sec structure.
is it possible to give DSS a default value for the "description" field when a new project is created?
Thanks in advance,
Ben
Hi @ben_p
Have you had a chance to check the project creation macro:
https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/plugins/reference/project-creation-macros.html
So when you finished, you should have something like this in the dropdown for the new projects:
You can use the project creation macros to set a default description when a project is created. Another option is to build a custom plugin that automatically adds a standard description.
I ran into the same issue and found a workaround by setting up a project template. When creating a new project, you can use a pre-configured template that includes a default description. This way, every project starts with the same content automatically. If you're also working on product descriptions for e-commerce, might be useful for automating that process efficiently.
