To begin using a project in your current project, you must have an Administer Resources permission.
If you want to use an element from either a local or Teamwork Cloud (TWCloud) project, you must use that project in your project first. Projects can be used only in the read-only mode.
To start using a server project in your project
- Select one of the following:
- Options > Project Usages
- Collaborate > Project Usages > Project usages
The Project Usages dialog opens.
- Click the
button and then select Use Server Project (see the following figure). The Use Server Project wizard opens.
Select the server project you want to start using and click Next.
Directly/Indirectly used projects
The selected project is treated as a directly used project. A project used by a used project is treated as an indirectly used project.
- Select a version of the server project to use and click Finish (see the following figure). The wizard closes.
- Wait while the usage to the selected project is established.
View the selected server project added to the usages of your project In the Project Usages dialog.
The used project version shows which version is used and the latest project version (for example, #2/3 means project version 2 is used but version 3 is the latest project version).
Select Notify on New Version to get instant notifications about changes to used projects to ensure they are always up to date.Used project
Please note, the whole content of a used project is added to the main project.
- Click OK to close the dialog.
The selected server project also appears in the Model Browser, under the package Project Usages.
Once the usage to the project is established, you can start using its elements. For example, you can select them as types in your project.
Establishing usage to a local project is very similar. In this case, you don't have to select the project version, since local projects don't have them.
