How may I publish a model from erwin Data Modeler to erwin Web Portal or upload a model to Web Portal?
Solution:
1. Open a Model in erwin Data Modeler (make sure that any changes you have made have been saved already).
2. Go to File | Web Portal | Publish.
3. For each of the Parameters, complete according to the tool-tips displayed in the bottom panel. For example,
- Repository URL: http://portalhostname:11680/MM/
- User name: Administrator (be sure to select a user with Administrative privileges)
- Password: password
- Repository content path: \foldername <-- not required
- Publish to configuration: True
- Repository configuration path:
- Attachment files:
- Wait for repository operation completion: True
NOTE: If you do not specify the repository content path folder, the Model will be placed in the public folder as well as the default (“Published”) configuration.
4. Click Finish.

Hi Sharona,
The above article pertains to publishing from erwin to the web portal. In that case, the file must reside locally.
However, within the web portal UI (web browser) you can also publish to the web portal and also schedule regular harvestings. One example how to do that is here: How to Harvest a Single Model from a r9 Mart using Web Portal r9.x?
Cheers,

We just acquired the web portal, and I am trying to publish our model. I found these instructions in the knowledge base, but one step seem to be missing.
When I go to File | Web Portal | Publish, I got an error that said there is no model on the file system. So I saved the model on my desktop, as an off-line model. Then I was able to start publishing it.
Is this how it's supposed to work? Why can't I publish directly from the mart on-lin model?
