Note
The list of available menu options depends on your user access rights. See User types and access rights for more information.
Change the name of a site
Go to Settings from the site's main menu.
Enter the new name in Title.
Select Save.
Add a logo to a site
You can see a site's logo between the Title and State columns of the site's row on the project and account overview pages. In the following screenshot, the globe image is an example of a logo added to a site.
Go to Settings from the site's main menu.
Add a link to your logo in Logo URL.
Select Save.
Add a comment to a site
You can add comments to sites to keep things organized and help other users of the platform understand the purpose of each site better.
Go to either the account or the project level.
Select the comment bubble at the end of the chosen site's row.
Enter your comment and select Save.
To see your comment, hover over the comment bubble or select it. Sites with comments have a black comment bubble, while sites with no comments have a white comment bubble.
Add tags to a site
You can set tags for your sites. Tags let you group sites with the same tags on the project level on Dashboard or refer to the necessary sites when using some rule boxes such as Text Template. See Combine attributes from different columns to create dynamic values.
To add a tag to a site:
Go to Settings from the site's main menu.
Choose the Tags tab.
Add key and value in the Add new tag section and select Add Tag.
Note
Also, tags let you simplify the site references when making some operations via Platform API. You can use a textual representation of a site instead of storing the site ID. In this case, the site tags must be unique within an account.
Move a site to a different project
Go to Settings from the site's main menu.
From the Project drop-down menu, select the project where you want to move the site.
Select Save.
Move multiple sites to a different project in bulk
You can move multiple sites into a different project at once:

Select Move into Project and choose Next Step.
From the Project drop-down menu, select the project where you want to move the sites.
Note
If one of the sites you are moving has lists shared on the project level, this project loses access to the lists as the lists' source site moves to a different project. The lists become available to the target project chosen in the Project drop-down menu.
Select Execute.
Reset data in a site
You can delete all product data from a site but preserve all site configurations, such as data sources, mapping, rule boxes, and export channels. To reset the data:
Go to Settings from the site's main menu.
Choose the Advanced Settings tab.
Select Reset in the Reset Data panel.

Tick the boxes next to the sites where you want to reset data and select Next Step.
Select Reset Sites and choose Next Step.
Select Execute.
Disable or pause a site
By default, sites are always active in the platform. They import data from your data sources, process it by applying rule boxes and mapping attributes, and export it to the selected channels. If you want to deactivate a site, there are two (2) options:
Pause a site's export. In this case, the site still imports data from your data sources and processes it without exporting it to any channels.
Disable a site. In this case, the site no longer imports, processes, or exports any data. Even if the site uses scheduling or triggering settings, no run occurs.
To pause or disable a site, use one of the following procedures.
From the site level
Go to Dashboard from the site's main menu.
In the top-right corner, select the Active drop-down menu.
To pause the export of this site, select Paused. To disable this site, select Disabled.
From the account or the project level
Go to either the account or the project level.
Select the green play icon (▶︎) in the State column of the desired site.
To pause the export of this site, select Paused Upload. To disable this site, select Disabled.
