Standard profiles should be stored in a public collaborative space everyone can access. If you try to add a project that requires a standard profile that does not exist on the server, the standard profile is automatically imported to the server. We highly recommend moving such standard profiles to a collaborative space dedicated to standard profiles.
Creating public collaborative spaces
We recommend that administrators responsible for managing MBSE on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform create a public collaborative space for standard profiles. All users should have viewing permission for this space, but the editing permission should be reserved for the administrator.
To create a public collaborative space
- On the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, click and find Collaborative Spaces Control Center under My Apps.
- Click Create Collaborative Space.
- In the open dialog, enter the owner’s name (if it is not the current user).
- In the Title box, the space title.
- In the Description box, enter an optional space description.
- In the Family drop-down box, select Design - Collaborative storage to manage any kind of content.
- In the Visibility drop-down box, select Public - Content visible to all users.
- Click the Create button.
Importing standard profiles to the 3DEXPERIECNE platform
Once the collaborative space is created, users can import standard profiles to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
- Before starting work with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, it is recommended to add all standard profiles provided in the modeling tool installation.
- Members of the same team should use a modeling tool with the same plugins.
To import standard profiles to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
- Log in to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform where the collaborative space was created.
- In the main menu, select 3DEXPERIENCE > Switch Platform/Credentials.
- In the Credentials drop-down box of the open dialog, select the appropriate public collaborative space.
- Click OK.
- In the main menu, select 3DEXPERIENCE > Add Profiles to Server.
Once standard profiles are added to a public collaborative space, all newly created and added projects will use standard profiles from that space. If a profile is not imported automatically, you can add it as a standalone project.
