Hi,

xml export files are only readable, if the user has the license privilege "ARIS Access" assigned.

Hi Frank,

we have similar issues. We created an XML file to be imported into e.g. HPQC and it is not working because of 'unreadable characters'. How can we get a readable xml from ARIS?

Best

i generate these files as system user...

do u mean that they are not readable from an external editor ?

Hi,

yes, you are right. Also the "system" user is only a user having a certain license. If you assign the appropriate license, you see an editable file.

OK... and i imagine that the academic license do not allow to generate editable xml files... ;o(

That's a big issue for us (laboratory DISP of INSA-Lyon), because we want to check some characteristics of models managed on ARIS... calculating some "distances" between different views or models... Previously, using ARIS7, it was not a problem...

Is it possible to transfer this post in the academic forum ?

thanks for this clear answer !
