Importing XSD

Is there a way to import a schema file (XSD) and create business classes and relationships ?

If not is there a way to define a custom interface to do this.

Request a feature to do this as XSD is a very common format and will save a lot of effort of retyping attribute names for some of the public/indsutry schemas out there.

Hello Prakash,

Currently there is no interface to import XSD and create business classes & relationships.

The only way to do this is :

- using tabular formats (Excel or CSV) with Provision Translator (Interface --> Translator --> Import)

- using standard XML formats such as XMI for business classes (Interface --> UML --> Import)

If you're using Provision CIF XML, you could probably design a translator that could translate the XSD into proper business classes & relationships that either XMI or CIF XML format could interpret to create them into PV.

But you'd need to create that translator as I do not think such translator exists.

Thanks,
regards,

Thierry.

Thank for your response Thierry.

Could the capability to import XSDs natively be considered for a future version of the product ? I am happy to chat with the product manager to elaborate on the capability if that is required.

Cheers,

Prakash
