Importing instances

Importing resources is the first task you can perform once you have created a connection or opened an existing connection. You can import Pacbase entities from a Repository if you have created a connection to a Pacbase database. To import instances into your workspace, you must fill in the import wizard.

Before you begin
You import Pacbase entities from the Pacbase explorer view and you need to have a connection to a Pacbase database created for that purpose.

To open the import wizard, proceed as follows:

  1. From the Pacbase explorer view, open an existing connection.
  2. Under this connection, right-click on an entity type (ex: Data element) and select Fetch from repository in the popup menu. You have then access to the database resources. It implies you being connected to this repository and database.
  3. In the wizard that opens up, select the entity you want to import, the number of instances to be imported and the first characters of the entity names from which the import will start.
  4. Then, click Finish.
Results
The imported instances will then be displayed in the Pacbase explorer view, in your current connection, and in the branches which correspond to their entity types. Each entity branch displays the number of imported instances.
