This article will explain which functionalities you will find within the Data Garden menu, which is part of your main menu at the left side of your screen. The Data Garden is the area where you can access all your data.


When opening the Data Garden menu, there are 4 sections to choose from: 



Import
An overview of all the import sources that are setup in your portal. You can add multiple import definitions to import data from different sources and you can review your imported data here.


Database
An overview of all databases created within your portal. This is where the data of your projects is stored. These databases will be automatically created when you publish a project to live mode. You are able to connect import sources to it in order to get data into your project. You can apply data management rules to optimize your dataset and all gathered data from data collection will be added here as well. This is the center of your project where everything comes together, and the source that can be used for reporting.


Blacklist 
An overview of the blacklists and exclusion lists within your portal. These lists contain the email adresses of respondents who no longer want to be contacted or who have recently been contacted already and are therefore excluded for a short period of time.


API management
An overview of all API keys that are setup within your portal.


Widgets

Every menu item mentioned above will have its own overview screen when you open it. This presents you with a separate widgets for each item that you have created, which looks like this:

 


The widget shows:
Name: which you have entered upon creation, for reference. This is placed at the top left corner.

ID: an automatically created system reference.

Creator: the user account who created it.

Last edited date: a time stamp of the moment it was last changed.

Active switch: to indicate if it is an active or inactive source.


Click on the Edit button in the middle to open and review further details and settings of that specific project, import source, list or API key.
