Editing an export specification

Users with the Export-to-iBase plug-in and administrator privileges can edit and delete export specifications through the i2 Analyst's Notebook Premium desktop client.

About this task

You need an export specification in order to export records to iBase. If you are able to log in to the connected iBase database as a user with the security administrator role, you can edit and delete export specifications. If you have write access to the iBase database, you can use the export specifications defined by an administrator, but you cannot modify them.

Note: You cannot edit an existing specification to use as the basis for a new specification. When you edit a specification, the changes are saved to the iBase database. If you change the Name field, you will overwrite the existing specification. A new specification is not created.

Procedure

  1. Select Export from the Export to iBase menu. The Export to iBase window opens and your connected database shows as the Active iBase Database.

  2. Select the specification you want to edit and click the Edit button. The i2 Analyze to iBase Export Specification window opens.

  3. Edit the options on the Specification and Details pages. For more information, see Export specifications.

  4. To save your changes to the iBase database, click Save.

To delete a specification, select it from the drop-down menu in the Export to iBase window. Click Delete > OK to confirm deletion or click Cancel to return.
