Checking in a DesignSync File or Folder

You can check in a DesignSync object when creating a new object, or from a list page that includes DesignSync objects, or the Properties page for a DesignSync object.

For checking into a module:

  • When you check a file into a module, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform creates a new module version. You cannot check into a module branch.
  • The selected tar or gz file for checking into the module must contain the full contents of the new module version;. Any objects not in the new version but that had been in a prior version will NOT be included in the new module version.
  • For modules that have hrefs defined, the new module version will include those hrefs and a hidden tag. For subsequent downloads, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform uses the hidden tag to locate the current module version.
  • The check-in process also compares the new module with the prior module and creates a manifest file that lists objects removed, added, or modified.

    When creating a DesignSync file, the file checked in is actually checked into the DesignSync object that appears linked in the navigator. See Navigate DesignSync Object / Browse DSFA Page.

    When checking into a module, the new module version is placed on a branch named DSFA and is given a hidden tag used to locate the exact module version for subsequent downloads.

    If you see an error message with "connection refused," the DesignSync server is down or otherwise unavailable. Contact your System Administrator for help.

  6. If you created a new DesignSync object for a document family in a library, the Actions page opens. See IP Classification User's Guide for instructions.
