Import Remote Model to Workspace

This action imports a model from a remote server into the Collaboration Workspace. It is available from the main "Collaboration" menu or from the Collaboration Workspace.

[!Important] Ensure that you don't import a coArchi version 1 repository into coArchi2. See here.

You need to ensure that an online repository has been configured beforehand. See Configuring a Remote Repository for more details.

The action presents the following dialog:

1. Enter the URL of the repository. If the URL is HTTPS you can enter the user name and password (or Personal Access Token) for the repository.
2. The "Store user name and password" checkbox can be checked if you wish to store these details. If you don't store them you will be prompted to enter them in other actions.
3. Click the "Import" button and the model will appear in the Collaboration Workspace panel if the connection was successful.

If the online repository contains an Archi model it is loaded and opened in the Models Tree.

If the online repository does not contain a model (blank repository) a new model is created locally and an initial commit is made and opened in the Models Tree.
