    Browser Setting Description
    Browser to Engine Communication Method used for browser to engine communication:
    • Using WebSocket Tunneling
    • Using Direct Engine REST APIs
    Important: Before using direct engine REST APIs, you must configure all engines to use the HTTPS protocol. For more information, see Engine Communication.
    Authoring Engine Timeout Number of milliseconds that Control Hub waits for a response from an authoring engine before considering the engine as inaccessible.

    When the engine is not accessible, you cannot select that engine as the authoring engine when designing pipelines or creating connections.

    In most cases, the default value should work. Try increasing the value when the authoring engines are running, but the authoring engine selection pages display the engines as not accessible.

    Hide Uninstalled Stages Hide stages that are not installed on the authoring engine in the pipeline creation help bar and in the stage library panel in the pipeline canvas.

    When cleared, stages that are not installed appear disabled, or greyed out.
    Show Advanced Options in New Pipelines Show advanced options by default when creating a new pipeline or when adding a new stage to an existing pipeline.

    When cleared, new pipelines and stages hide the advanced options by default.
  4. Click Save.

Inviting Users

Invite other users to join your organization so that you can collaboratively manage pipelines as a team.

  1. In the top right toolbar, click the My Account icon () and then click Invite Users.
  2. In the Add Users window, type or paste one or more email addresses.
    Note: Users enter their own display name when they join the organization.
  3. Optionally, select one or more existing groups to add the users to.

    Control Hub provides a default all group that includes every user in the organization. To create additional groups, see Creating Groups.

  4. Optionally, modify the roles assigned to the users.

    Default role assignments for new users permit most tasks to encourage development and testing. Change the role assignments as needed to secure the integrity of your organization and data. You can click None to clear all role assignments, or you can click All to assign all roles.

    For a description of each role, see Role Descriptions.

  5. Click Invite.
    Control Hub sends an email inviting the users to join your organization.
    Note: Users must join within seven days of receiving the email. Otherwise, the invite expires and you must renew the invites.
