Mass import options
We have an old Minerva Import Tool as part of our Aras Instance. It's written as a standalone webapp, but running on the same webserver as Aras and reusing the authentication cookie - I don't know what was the benefit of doing it this way, but that's what they did. Now, this tool is getting outdated due to some changes required for an integration. We don't have the source code for the tool so we can't easily update it, it's written in VB for an ancient version of .net anyway so it wouldn't be so useful anyway. What I'm wondering is, what are you using for mass import of Parts, BOMs, and Manufacturer Parts?Solved223Views0likes4CommentsCustomizing BatchLoader in ARAS 31 to Add Users with Identities
Hi everyone, I recently migrated from ARAS version 11 to version 31. In ARAS 11, we used the BatchLoader tool to import user data from an Excel file, which included both user details and their associated identities. However, after migrating to ARAS 31, I noticed that the BatchLoader no longer supports adding users and identities together in a single operation. The AML mapping now restricts us to using only one ItemType at a time, which makes it difficult to replicate our previous process. Has anyone tried customizing the BatchLoader in ARAS 31 to overcome this limitation? I’d really appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to achieve this. Thanks in advance for your help! — Salini51Views0likes0CommentsBatch Loader Download Location / Source Code
Where do I download the files for the batch loader? In the past I ran it from the server itself but I don't have access to the server right now. Can I just download the files and run it from my computer? I can't seem to find any information, everything seems to assume you already have access to the application. I'd also be interested in taking a look at the source code, if it is open sourceSolved353Views0likes5CommentsBatch Approve Express ECOs
We are using Innovator 24 in a large course (550+) students. This Fall we will be having all students submit their work using the Express ECOs. Once items are scored, we would like to be able to Batch Approve the ECOs by selecting the desired ECOs with an Action available in the contextual menu to approve the selected ECOs. Any assistance with writing the method that would enable this would be greatly appreciated.Solved86Views0likes1CommentBatchloading multiple Document items - but some reference/link to others via template_file_container. Possible to batchload all documents and their dependent items in one go?
Hey all, I am developing a batchloading schema for uploading template files. Pretty straightforward, here is my AML for a simple document load: <AML> <Item type="Document" action="add"> <name>@1</name> <description>@2</description> <state>@3</state> <classification>@4</classification> <authoring_tool>@5</authoring_tool> <is_template>@9</is_template> <Relationships> <Item type="Document File" action="add"> <related_id> <Item type="File" action="add"> <actual_filename>@6</actual_filename> <filename>@7</filename> </Item> </related_id> </Item> </Relationships> </Item> </AML> However, I am trying to utilize template file containers for office connector templates. Template file container is a property on the document itemtype that lets a template document item to reference another template document item in order to reference and "use" its file. Useful if you want to have templates across multiple document classifications without adding the file individually to all those differently classified template doc items. I have about 10 templates and about 20 document classifications, so wanted to create around 200 document items (templates) but have only 10 hold the actual files, and 190 just reference the 10 via template_file_container property. A few questions: Am I able to accomplish this in one batchload procedure/one AML script? How do I write the AML for the latter document items to reference the file-holding document items? I imagine it is something like:<template_file_container></template_file_container>, but will the code require the actual item code (BFA3BE03444448F5916133D874712CF4 or something similar) or is there a way to use the name/item numbers? Or is there a way to easily find the item code of the created template-holding document items from earlier in the "batchloading process"? And if so, how would I go about writing that? What would be the most robust and simplest script I can write to accomplish my goals?145Views0likes5CommentsSuggestion: Best place to learn AML language to use correct template in batchloader

Hello, I currently use the open, free version of Aras Innovator and am having difficulty figuring out how to store BOM data within the tool. I have seen from other posts that subscribers have access to a direct import functionality and also some kind of batch loader. For the latest free version of ARAS, what are the exact steps to import an excel file containing BOM data into Aras? Any help would be greatly appreciated.6.3KViews1like7Comments
