Using categories and grouping projects into them, you can organize the structure of your server projects' repository according to your needs.

By default, there is a single category Uncategorized, but you can create as many categories as you need. A project can be created directly in a selected category and later easily moved to another one. The category can be created in advance or while adding the project to the server. Categories can be renamed and removed. However, they cannot have sub-categories.

The TWCloud project categories in the modeling tool dialogs will be hidden if a user does not have the Manage Categories or Read-Only permission to at least one project inside of these categories.
