iModel Manager


iModel Manager can be found in the main project toolbar for an iTwin.

When selected, the user is presented with all iModels for the associated iTwin as a collection of tiles.  These tiles display an optional user-supplied image, a required name, a "3 dot" context menu (accessed by hovering over the bottom right part of the main tile) and a Sync status bar.

Note the Sync status bar does not appear for users with "Manage" entitlement.

 

The user can switch between tiled and List views using the toggle button on the top-right of the iModel Manager interface:

The List view contains the same information as the Tiled view, but is arranged differently to better suit scrolling and filtering large numbers of iModels.

More information on the iModel context menu can be found here.

In Tile view, when hovering over the lower part of the iModel image tile, a highlighted band labelled "Show saved views" will appear.
In List view, this is a link on the right hand side of the iModel row.

                               

Clicking on this band will open a sub-panel with a list of saved views for that iModel:

Clicking any of the saved views will open the iModel in the viewer with that Saved View active.

Note that due to caching, any new saved views created in the viewer will take at least 5 minutes to be populated in iModel Manager

Sync Status Bar

The Sync status bar includes information about the last run Sync connection.  If a connection is running it will show the words "Syncing: " followed by the name of the connection currently being processed.

Once again, the status bar only appears for users who belong to roles which have Engineer or Validate entitlements.  Roles with Manage entitlements should not see the status bar.

If a Connection is running (as in the image above), the user will be prompted to open a Named Version:

If no Named Version exists, the user will be asked if they wish to create one:

 

If the last Connection to run has a Partial Success or Failure status, it will be reflected in the status bar along with a link labelled "View report".

Clicking the "view report" link will take the user to the Connections page highlighting that specific Connection.

This will open the Connections page and display the Sync Report for that connection.  More information on the Sync report can be found here.

If the last run Connection completed successfully, it will be reflected with a green checkmark and the date & time of the last run.
