Install the BPMN Import

Scroll Previous Topic Top Next Topic More

 

To import BPMN files for Conformance Checking two options exist. It is recommended since Release August 2021 to Use the BPMN Import Wizard - an add-on to upload BPMN files to MPM Template Apps. Prior to Release August 2021 the BPMN Import connector - a custom connector - was used to import BPMN files for conformance checking. This part included more scripting efforts and is still supported by the MPM Template Apps August 2021 or higher, but this connector will be deprecated in the future, thus, the use of the BPMN Import Wizard is the recommended option.

 

Install the BPMN Import Wizard

 

BPMN Import-Wizard supports the upload of BPMN files to MPM Template Apps. It helps you to load the data without the need to do the scripting by yourself. The workflow of the BPMN Import-Wizard is self-explaining and documented step-by-step in the Wizard and in this section Use the BPMN Import Wizard.

 

For the installation, follow the steps below.

 

Warning
