This topic provides information about managing workspaces, projects, and integration artifacts.
Workspaces serve as repositories for storing and managing Actian DataConnect projects and their associated content. Each workspace contains three different types of resources - projects, folders, and files. Projects can be created from Project Explorer and may contain folders, files, and design artifacts (maps, schemas, processes, and so on) created within the Actian DataConnect. You can define multiple workspaces, and create multiple Projects within those workspaces, to help efficiently organize your collateral. In addition to having multiple projects, each project can be stored in a different location in a file system. You can also create multiple workspaces and easily switch workspaces. The flexibility provided with workspaces, projects, and folders enables you to organize your files as per your requirement.
Project Explorer provides a hierarchical view of all the projects and artifacts in the current workspace. From Project Explorer, you can perform the following actions:
• Create, edit, delete, duplicate, open, close, rename, import, or export projects
• Create artifacts in projects such as maps, processes, EZscripts, and schemas
• Edit, delete, duplicate, import, or export artifacts in existing projects
The structure of a project is:
• Project Name
– 0-N folders
– 0-N design artifact files
Repository Explorer and its Repository Documents tab view can be used to view, sort, and search a specific integration artifact from a selected folder.
