Project elements

Updated at 2023-05-22 20:17:21 UTC

Project elements is the aggregate JSON syntax for the entire project. Each element in your project has JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) syntax which defines how it should be displayed (i.e. formats, titles, chart type, etc). Under project elements you can see and edit the JSON for any element or group in the project.

Find and replace

Project elements makes it easy to make repetitive edits like find and replace instances of a certain phrase. You can save the changes by pressing the “save” button.

Caution: Once you save changes to the project elements page, make sure to reload any browser tabs where you have the project open. If you press “save” within the open project without reloading it first, you will overwrite the changes you made in project elements.
