Can you get the profile used to stereotype an element

[Robert Sheridan]

Hello all,
I am wanting to use the API to extract the profile used to set the stereotype for an element.  I can get the stereotype but have not found anything in the API that gives me the profile, does anyone know how to do this.

Thanks

AFAIK there is nothing in the API to give you that information. What you need to do is to query t_xref:

Code: [Select]

SELECT description FROM t_xref WHERE client=<ea_guid of element>That will return something like

Code: [Select]

@STEREO;Name=ArchiMate_Junction;FQName=Archimate2::ArchiMate_Junction;@ENDSTEREO;
Use Repository.SQLQuery and parse the returned XML string.

Thanks Qwerty, have been reading your book and that was where it was leading me.
Free uptick: the books have been very useful, very good investment.

Thanks Simon, did not spot that this had been added in to the API since I last did this (reusing old code).
