Title: OSLC PCS SynchProfile method ?
Post by: Guillaume on March 17, 2026, 12:30:03 am

Hi,

EA Interop API provides a method to synchronize the MDG's stereotypes i.e. matching what one can do in EA via a right click on a stereotype in the toolbox  > Synchronize Stereotype
Example:    Repository.CustomCommand("Repository", "SynchProfile", "Profile=myProfile;Stereotype=test;");

As I create stereotyped elements matching a profile (custom MDG) via the PCS OSLC API, is there a way to run this Synchronize command so that all tagged values matching the profile definition are created ?

Thanks

If you create an element with a stereotype using the client API, the tagged values are created automatically.
If that doesn't happen when creating elements using the server API, than that should be considered a bug.

Synchronize stereotype should only be used after updating the stereotype definition itself.

Hi,

Thank you for the advice. I figured out the stereotype was properly set. Having fixed it, I confirm the tagged values are created in the new element based on the MDG definition, available on the EA project.

Use the supported function instead on the EA side.

Repository.SynchProfile ("myProfile", "test");

No.
