Connect to the Asset Service

The Reusable Asset Service provides model structures and documents to you from one or more registries on remote systems. You access these registries through a Cloud connection to the appropriate server. The connection details should be provided to you by your System Administrator or Reusable Asset Service Administrator.

Registry

This field normally defaults to the last-used registry name. If the field is empty, or if you want to switch to a different registry, click on the button to the right of the field.

The 'Cloud Connection' dialog displays.

Using the information provided by your administrator, type in the server name, URL and the name of the model hosting the registry data. For example, if you wanted to download the UBL Frameworks into your model, you would specify the server 'sparxcloud.com' and the model name 'modelpatterns'.

If advised by your Administrator, type in the user name and password for the server.

Click on the OK button; the 'Registry' field now shows the server name.

Storage

If there is more than one Storage available in the Registry, this field defaults to the first listed in the Registry.

To check for or select other Storages, click on the drop-down arrow at the right of the field. Click on the Storage to review. For example, if you were downloading UBL frameworks, you would select 'UBL' in the list.

The 'Registry Browser' tab displays the Packages registered in the selected Storage.
