Exporting multiple diagrams as separate pdf files

Hi Daniel,

if you are not so proficient in scripting I would suggest you get s. o. to help you. The API is fully documented in the ARIS Help you find in the Architect client. However it seems to me from the size of your task that also some serious consideration has to be given to the design of this report, as it is probably going to output hundreds or even thousands of files.

You could contact Software AG Professional services or a Software AG partner who may assist you.

Dear Daniel,

What's your use case that forces you to export all ARIS content model by model?
What are you supposed to do with all those PDF and XLS files?

Isn't the purpose of a centrally managed business process respository like ARIS to keep all information well connected and provide its users with the most recent process content online as THE single source of truth!?

Once you export all ARIS data you can hardly navigate from one model to another, not to mention that all information gets fixed in files and likely to be outdated soon.

Cheers
Rune

The script is not extremely complex, If you need attributes for objects, then this is a more complex task but also doable. I'll show an example later.

Hi.

I should have described the reason behind such manipulations in the initial post. My bad.

In fact the sole reason is that one of our old clients has stopped actively using ARIS quite a long ago (last db modification was about 2 years ago). However sometimes he would login view old data. Currently due to organizational changes we cannot provide free viewer licenses anymore. Assuming the circumstances this client asked for a such extract, that would allow him to keep same data structure in a simple archive and have all current diagrams exported as pdf in order to view them.

Thanks. I will certainly contact SAG. In fact, I'm not completely lost when it comes to ARIS script. With proper documentation and methods I've already done some small tweaks here and there in the reports. However I'm still yet uncomfortable with this scripting language, since I've been working using Python for quite a while.

That would be great and very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Hello Daniel,

maybe it would be easier for you to offer a static HTML export. This is based on a configurable report in the script category Publisher.
