# Project Set Path Action

With the help of the Project Set Path Action it is possible to (re) set the file path of a project.

This can be used, for example, to link an existing project object (database / metadata) in helmut with another physical project object.

For example, when restoring a project from a backup, it would be conceivable to simply link the database object with the backup and you will work with the backup the next time the project is opened.

The Project Set Path Action can be queried in every stream in which a project object is present.
