This page is intended to guide VFS team members who need to review and update their product directory entry during the Collaboration Cycle.
Why is this important?
Keeping your product’s entry up-to-date allows Platform teams to better understand your product and the resources it uses. Additionally, it will help provide better insight for Collab Cycle touchpoints and reviews.
Open vs. restricted attributes
Products have two types of attributes: open and restricted. See a list of open and restricted attributes. Team members can make changes to both open attributes and restricted attributes in the product directory.
