When you publish an asset, you copy a packaged asset to a repository.
Publishing is similar to copying the asset to a local or remote repository.
When you publish an asset, you must have a complete asset that is
already packaged into an asset archive (.ras) file. Before you begin this
exercise you should switch to the RAS perspective.
To publish an existing asset to a repository:
- In the Asset Explorer view, right-click the repository to which
you want to publish your asset and click Publish Asset to
open the Publish Asset window. The menu is enabled only if you have permission
to publish assets to the selected repository.
- Click Browse, select the existing asset
to publish, and then click Open.
- Select the target repository you want to publish the asset to and
click OK. The Publish Asset window
opens, providing status on the publish command.
Once the asset is published, the repository indexes the asset and
adds it to its search index.
