Globals speckle new UI

Hey!

maybe i missed something, but where are the ‘Globals’ in the new speckle UI?
I can still see them when i login to the old interface, but in the new one they are not present

Globals is not yet present as a UI in FE2. The branch/model name remains “special” and protected, but the interface is under heavy review.

Hey @Jonathon any update on globals?

Looks like you can’t create globals model in dashboard but can via a connector – is there anywhere I can follow the proposed changes to the globals?

Hi Luke! Here is a good place as any to follow updates on this.

As a quick heads up: globals as you know them will not be coming back - the whole secret protected branch way was a POC. We’re planning to bring them back as customisable metadata on any top level entity, specifically projects and models (versions too if there will be a usecase). These will then be exposed via the api, of course.

We’ll most likely be able to start working on this sometime in (late) summer.

We’re obviously curious what you’re using them for, so if you want to tell us your usecase, we’d be very greatful!
