Check where you can find various property options and details.

Property groups page

When you launch Property Manager from the ​Akamai Control Center​'s menu, you land on a page listing a hierarchy of groups set up in Identity and Access Manager and the properties created within them.

In the Properties tab, the main table shows individual properties and their basic details. You can check:

• the product, whether a property was created in Property Manager or the obsolete Configuration Manager, and the contract it belongs to - all by hovering over a property name.

• whether any property versions have been activated on staging or production networks.

• the hostnames associated with a property version or a hostname bucket that's assigned directly to a property rather than a specific version, both on staging or production networks.

From the Actions column, you can clone or delete a property.

To get more details on a particular property or edit it, click the property name.

Includes tab

From the groups page you can navigate to the Includes tab that shows individual includes and their basic details. You can check:

• the product and the contract an include belongs to - all by hovering over an include name.

• the include type.

• whether any include versions have been activated on staging or production networks.

• the parent properties that reference the include.

From the Actions column, you can clone or delete an include.

To get more details on a particular include or edit it, click the include name.

Editor view

Once you click the property or include version, you land on an Edit tab. If the version hasn't been activated, you can edit its details. If the version is currently active or has been deactivated on either network, the view is read-only and you need to create a new version to make any changes.

In the Activate tab, you can review and activate property or include versions on staging and production networks, compare the activated versions, and view the detailed activation history.
