The union portal is a dedicated workspace for project group admins (union admins). It shows a dashboard of all projects that belong to a project group and provides tools to create new projects, manage project memberships, and configure group settings.

Who can access the union portal

  • Project group admins (union admins) can access the portal for the project groups they administer.
To open the union portal, open your user menu (the avatar disc in the top-right corner of the navigation bar) while inside a project that belongs to a project group. Select Union portal from the menu. The union portal has its own navigation header across the top of the page. Union portal navigation header The Broadstripes logo on the left links back to the union portal home page. Clicking it returns you to the portal dashboard from any page within the union portal.

Project switcher

The Projects button () opens the project switcher, letting you navigate directly to any Broadstripes project you have access to without returning to the main app first. The switcher works the same way as in the main app — you can search by name, sort alphabetically or by recency, and open projects in new tabs.

User disc

The avatar disc in the top-right corner opens your account menu. On the union portal, the menu includes:
  • Help center — opens the Broadstripes help documentation in a new tab.
  • Log out — signs you out of Broadstripes.
The settings gear that appears in the main app navigation bar is not shown on the union portal. Settings pages are scoped to individual projects, so there are no settings to show when you are browsing the portal itself.
The color of your user disc reflects your permission level within the portal:
  • Green — union admin (project group admin)
  • Sky blue — basic member

Portal dashboard

The union portal dashboard has two main tabs: Projects and Users.

Projects tab

The Projects tab lists all projects in the group. For each project, you can open the project, manage its members, and — if you have the appropriate permissions — disable or make a project read-only. Union admins can create a new project for the group from the Projects tab.

Users tab

The Users tab lists all users who have membership in any project within the group. Union admins can view and manage memberships across projects from this tab.
