To be able to publish models to Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud, you need to install the Cameo Collaborator Publisher plugin in your modeling tool.

Compatibility

  • Cameo Collaborator Publisher 19.0 is only compatible with the same version of Cameo Collaborator for TWC. Check with system administrator what version of Cameo Collaborator for TWC your team or organization uses.
  • Make sure Cameo Collaborator Publisher plugin version is compatible with the version of your modeling tool. See compatibility table.

Choose one of the following ways to install a plugin in a modeling tool:

Installing our commercial and no-cost plugins

All available plugins provided by us, both commercial and no-cost, are accessible via the core.rdzip file, which is pre-bundled together with the installation files and is readily available in the Resource/Plugin Manager. The available plugins depend on the modeling tool that you are using. The file is located at <tool_installation_directory>\data\resourcemanager\distribution\core.rdzip, however, it is added automatically to the Resource/Plugin Manager.

To install our commercial and no-cost plugins

  1. In the main menu, select Help > Resource/Plugin Manager. The pre-bundled core.rdzip file containing all available plugins is loaded automatically.
  2. Select the check boxes for the plugins you want to install.

  3. Click the Download/Install button to install the selected plugins.

  4. Restart your modeling tool.

Installing custom plugins

If you are using custom-built plugin .rdzip files located on a local file system, network share, or a web server, you can add the plugins from the file by specifying its location via the Resource/Plugin Manager.
