- Managing team spaces
  You might want to become a team space member, add members to your team space, change a user role in a team space, modify the team space, or delete a team space.
- Test assets and a server project
  HCL OneTest™ Server projects manage access to your test assets, which are stored in a Git repository. Projects are maintained in a team space. Projects are either public by default or private. Private projects are not discoverable by other users. You can either add your own project or you can request to be a member of another public project.
- Managing repositories
  After you create a project in HCL OneTest™ Server, you can add repositories that contain test assets and resources to the project. You can also change the repository details, update the user credentials of a repository, delete a repository, create a webhook for the configured repository.
- Protecting API test assets by using secrets
  Secrets are key-value pairs that are created for your project in HCL OneTest™ Server under a secrets collection. You can create secrets collections for your project that enable you or members in your project to use secrets at test runtime either in HCL OneTest Server or in desktop clients.
- Managing an encrypted dataset
  You can use encrypted datasets to limit access to confidential information such as account number or passwords. You can arrange data by an appropriate category so that project members can use datasets more effectively in certain tests and protect them.
- Managing notifications
  HCL OneTest™ Server provides a feature to display notifications for different events within the user interface (UI) of HCL OneTest Server. You can configure an SMTP server on HCL OneTest Server when you want HCL OneTest Server to send out notifications about the different events as emails to the subscribed users.
  - Managing in-app notifications
    You can manage the in-app notifications by changing the subscriptions that are automatically enabled for you for all server events. You can view the server events that are automatically subscribed and then change the subscription for any or all events. For example, as a team space owner, you can choose to be notified when members of the team space create new projects or delete their projects but not be notified when tests are run.
  - Managing email notifications
    You can manage the email notifications by changing your subscription to the SMTP channel. For example, as a project owner, you can choose to be notified when members of the project add a repository or run a test in a team space but not be notified when projects are created in the team space.

Managing SMTP notifications

You, as a Server Administrator or Team Space Owner can configure an existing Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server so that HCL OneTest™ Server can send out notifications about the server events in emails to the registered users who have subscribed to the SMTP notifications. See Configuring an SMTP server to manage email notifications.

If you, as a registered user of HCL OneTest™ Server want to receive the email notifications about specific events and not all events, you can change the subscriptions for the server events. See Managing email notifications.
