Category: Briefcase to iModel
Error message: Pull is Required.
Issue:
Pull is required.
Cause:
This error occurs when another user or process has pushed changes to the iModel on the server. Your local copy of the iModel (the briefcase) must be updated with these server changes before your new changes can be synchronized. This is a common and expected event in collaborative workflows to prevent data conflicts.
Solution:
The synchronization service usually resolves this automatically by pulling the latest server changes and merging them into your local briefcase before retrying the push.
- Retry the operation: In most cases, simply running the synchronization job again will resolve the issue, as the framework is designed to pull changes first.
- Contact Support: If the issue persists after several retries, it may indicate a more complex merge conflict or an issue with the iModel service. Contact Bentley Support for assistance.
