Chose your axe Monitor project within the axe Expert extension
The project selection portion of the Settings panel allows you to view the Current Project, make a selection from the Select a project list, and choose SELECT PROJECT to enable the selection. This set of controls allows you to change the currently-selected project (when one has previously been selected), or select a project when there is no Current Project selected. Select an option in the Select a project drop-down list to switch to your chosen project.
You must be connected to your axe Monitor server before you can select a project on the Settings tab. For more information, see Sign in to axe Monitor.
You cannot upload to or download from axe Monitor without being a member of a project (this applies to issues, scripts, scope definitions, and custom rules). When creating an organization project in axe Monitor, be sure to leave the Favorite and Accessibility checkboxes checked so that the projects will appear in the list of available projects from which to select in the axe Expert Extension.
