A project is your main working file in HASS Cloud. It stores your system setup, inputs, and project settings used for calculations and reporting. See Project Properties (Quick Access) for the main project settings panel.Cloud Storage
Projects are stored in the cloud file system inside folders, not on local device storage.Local Files
Local files are only created when you download reports or export files through your browser.Ownership and Access
