If you want to be able to edit a Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud document, you have to publish it specifically for editing as described below.

To be able to publish models to Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud:

  • The Cameo Collaborator Publisher plugin must be installed in your modeling tool.
  • You must log in to Teamwork Cloud.
  • You need to have user permissions to publish models.
  • The model you are trying to publish must be stored in Teamwork Cloud. If you want to publish a local model, first add it to Teamwork Cloud.
  • If you intend to publish a large model, increase the default JVM heap size of the Cameo Collaborator Publisher plugin as follows:
    1. Go to the <modeling tool installation directory>/plugins/com.nomagic.collaborator.publisher directory and open the publish.properties file.

    2. Increase the -Xmx value, e.g., -Xmx4000M. It is recommended to set a larger heap size value than the one defined for your modeling tool.

    3. Save and close the file.

  • Depending on the size of the model you intend to publish, allocate a sufficient amount of memory to your modeling tool:
    • 2 million element model - 24 GB of RAM

    • 1 million element model - 15 GB of RAM

    • 500k element model - 7 GB of RAM


When you publish a new document, it inherits Teamwork Cloud project permissions. When you update a document, project permissions are not affected.


You can specify the diagram export options, such as dimensions and building time (the latter applies only to tables and matrices), in the Project Options dialog. See the Diagram image export page to learn more.

Wait until you get the message that the model is successfully published, as publishing a large model may take some time. If you update an existing document, its version number in Cameo Collaborator for TWC is increased by one. A new version of the published document includes all comments from the previous version, unless the commented item no longer exists or comments are disabled.
