Maximum Query Time

You use this option to set the length of time that the Enterprise Architect client will wait for a response from the Pro Cloud Server. For example, if a user is running a custom search or other data request and Enterprise Architect times out before the PCS response arrives, you can extend the time the Enterprise Architect client will wait for the response.

Click on the drop-down arrow and select from the time options - 60, 120, 180 or 300 seconds.

Note that for this option to work you must be using PCS 4.2.65 or later and be a member of the Administrators User Group.

Disable XMI Import over a Cloud Connection for this Model

You select this option to prevent users from being able to import XMI files into the model through a Cloud connection. This avoids the potential of large import transactions being affected by connection problems. When this option is set, users can still perform XMI imports using a direct connection.

Note that this option disables not only XMI Import (XMI 1.1/2.1) but also any Native file (Native XEA/XML) import, effectively also disabling:

• Restoring baselines that are stored in the model
• Restoring baselines that are stored in RAS (see the Manage Baselines Help topic)
• Importing Packages from RAS
• Loading and batch-importing controlled Packages (see the Using Controlled Packages Help topic)
• importing Version Controlled Packages

URL

Type the fully qualified URL (including protocol, server name or IP and port) of the site hosting this model in WebEA. For example:

     https://localcloud:1443

Model Number

Type the position number of this model in the list of models presented in the WebEA 'Login' page. (As in the [model_list] section of the WebEA config file.)

Use this Theme on Images

Click on the drop-down arrow and select the diagram theme to apply to diagram images in WebEA.

Use this Scale on Images

Overtype the field with a value between 100 and 200 to define the scale of the WebEA images.

Auto create Diagram Image and Image Map (each time a Diagram is saved)

(In the Corporate, Unified and Ultimate Editions) Select this checkbox to create Diagram Images and image-maps for all diagrams. These images and image-maps will be automatically updated whenever the diagram content changes.

This option is necessary for publishing the model via the Pro Cloud in WebEA.

Deselect the checkbox to stop creating images and image-maps for diagrams. A prompt displays through which you specify whether to retain or delete the existing images and image-maps in the model.

Auto create HTML Page (each time a Linked Document is saved)

(In the Corporate, Unified and Ultimate Editions) Select this checkbox to create HTML pages for all Linked Documents in the model. These HTML pages will be automatically updated whenever the Linked Document content changes.

This option is necessary for publishing the model via the Pro Cloud in WebEA.

Deselect the checkbox to stop creating HTML pages for Linked Documents. A prompt displays through which you specify whether to retain or delete the existing HTML pages in the model.

Batch create Diagrams and/or Linked Documents cache

(Only if you have selected the 'Auto create Diagram Image and Image Map' and/or 'Auto create HTML Page' options.)

Click on the 'Create' button to page through the diagrams and Linked Documents of the model, creating an initial diagram image and image map for each diagram and an initial HTML page for each Linked Document.

You should only need to do this occasionally, to force a wholesale update of the cache; normally the individual diagram images and Linked Document pages are updated automatically when the original object is changed.

Integrations

It is possible to connect a non-Cloud model to the Integration Plug-ins provided by Pro Cloud Server.

To enable this feature:

• Tick the 'Enable' check -box
• Enter a connection string to a Pro Cloud Server (it is not necessary to include a 'Data Source'  or 'DNS')
• Click on the Fill Providers button to populate the list of available external data providers
• Tick any providers that should be made available to this model

Note: The connection string for a Cloud connection can be obtained via the Manage Project window, by right-clicking on a recent connection and selecting 'Edit connection string'.
