Before you can create or access project data, you must log in to a Vault server and a Vault database from the Prospector tree.
You must be an authorized user on the server before you can log in. The server and the database that you select when you log in determines what projects you can access.
Before you log in, project management commands are not available on context menus in the Prospector tree. After you log in, the projects available in the specified server and Vault database are listed in the Prospector tree, and applicable project management commands are displayed on the menus when you right-click a project item in the Prospector tree.
