Link an Elementi project to a SpinetiX cloud account
From SpinetiX Wiki
Introduction
This guide shows you how to link both existing and new Elementi projects to your SpinetiX cloud account, so you can take full advantage of powerful features like:
Automatic publish of the project to the designated cloud account, through a press of the “Send to cloud” button
Secure access to third-party data through the new “Connectors” service for a more flexible and robust integration of data-driven content.
Note:
Linking is a one-time setup per project. Once linked, your project stays connected unless you unlink it manually.
When you set your project's properties within the "New Project" dialog, make sure to do the following:
Find the “Cloud Account” option, set by default to “None”, and click on it to open the dropdown.
If you are not logged in, you'll see a “Log in...” entry ― click on it.
You are then prompted to log into your cloud account; enter the email address associated with your SpinetiX Cloud user and click 🆗.
Elementi looks up the identity provider of that user and either shows the SSO login dialog (if using Google, Facebook, or your company SSO) or prompts for the user's password.
You can check the option to stay logged in on that computer or click the “Forget password?” button to have a reset code sent to your email.
When logged in, the dropdown is populated with all the cloud accounts your user is part of ― select the one to which this new project should be linked to.
Once done with the rest of the options, click the 🆗 button to create the project.
How to link an existing project
Already working on a project in Elementi? Here’s how to link it to your SpinetiX cloud account:
Navigate to the collection hosting your project, if needed.
Right-click on your project icon and select the “Project Properties...” option from the context menu.
Project Properties dialog Find the “Cloud Account” option within the "Project Properties" dialog; for an unlinked project, this is set to “None”. Click on it to open the dropdown.
If you are not logged in, you'll see a “Log in...” entry ― click on it.
You are then prompted to log into your cloud account; enter the email address associated with your SpinetiX Cloud user and click 🆗.
Elementi looks up the identity provider of that user and either shows the SSO login dialog (if using Google, Facebook, or your company SSO) or prompts for the user's password.
You can check the option to stay logged in on that computer or click the “Forget password?” button to have a reset code sent to your email.
When logged in, the dropdown is populated with all the cloud accounts your user is part of ― select the one to which this new project should be linked to.
Click the “Apply” button to save the changes.
Switching accounts
If the project was previously linked to a SpinetiX cloud account to use the “Connectors” service for secure data access in data-driven widgets, switching to a different cloud account will require reconfiguring all the third-party connections within those widgets. Even if the data comes from the same third-party service (e.g., the same Google account), each SpinetiX cloud account has its own isolated environment. This separation ensures data integrity and prevents unauthorized access — but it also means that Connectors created under one account are not accessible from another.
