Importing a Visual Process

You can import visual processes from the Processes page.

You can import a process by selecting the output (in the JSON format) of a previous export process operation.

To import a process

  1. On the Navigation Tree, click Automator and select Visual Processes.

  2. On the displayed page, select the Import Processes tab.

  3. Click the Upload button and choose the file to import in the Open dialog box. You can select only one file at once.

Note: You can also import a standard process as a visual process. For this, export the standard processes with the "Include process dependencies" option enabled, and then upload them to Visual Processes.

  1. Enable the Change locations on import check box to substitute all locations values to the selected new location.

  2. Enable the Include process dependencies check box to import models, workspaces, change lists, and Visual Processes/Standard Processes connected to the processes (if any) to the Server Library.

  3. Click the Import button to import the processes. A message box informs you that the import operation is complete.

NOTE: If you exceed the number of processes allowed by your license, the following message appears.

"The maximum number of processes per your license (XX) will be exceeded with this import and it cannot be completed. You can select at most (NN) processes for import, or you may delete unused processes or contact your Altair sales representative for extended options."

 

Named Path Mapping

During import of an exported Visual Process that includes named paths, the Named Path Mapping window displays. In this window, the named paths in the Visual Process being imported are mapped to the existing named paths in the destination environment. The following options are available:

  • Auto Map Named Path button – Click to automatically map all imported named paths by ID or by Name (depending on the radio button selected). By default, the imported named paths are mapped by Name.

  • Edit Mapping button – Click to manually perform mapping or modify existing mapping.

  • Delete Mapping button – Click to delete currently selected mapping.

  • Delete All Mappings button – Click to delete all listed mappings.
