Project Configuration

The project configuration file is located in /.helix/config.xlsx (for sharepoint) or /.helix/config (for google drive). It consists of a table using Key and value columns. For example:

The format of the keys follows the identifier-dot notation, like in javascript. You can think of the sheets as a flattened JSON structure. If a key appears more than once, it would form an array, eg:

Will conceptually be a structure like:

{
  "access": {
    "allow": [
      "*@adobe.com",
      "*@example.com",
    ]
  }
}

The following table lists the configuration options of a project.
