Naming Conventions for Genesis WS, MU and DB

In the basic dashboard courses, there are documentation suggesting the recommended naming conventions for the workspaces, maintenance unit and the respectives sub folders.  

But in Genesis, I cannot find any.  I wish to get some idea for it for better structure and administering before starting using Genesis in our application.

  • Hi Jenny,

    Similar to other OneStream Solutions, all of the Workspace naming conventions are controlled by the solution itself. The content you create in Genesis is dynamically creating all of the Dashboard objects used for a given page and the content on the page. All of the content you create using Genesis, lives in the Genesis Workspace and follows the overall naming patterns. This ensures everything displays as expected. 

    The Dashboard course was designed more for those who are building Dashboards directly from the Application Workspaces page vs. doing it through Genesis.
