Hi - is it possible to convert a fact sheet (=application) to another type factsheet (=IT Component). I don’t want to manually redo the attributes and relationships. And I have multiple cases to be converted.Thank youNatalia

Hi y’all, I’m trying to figure out how the trash bin field works for archived factsheets. It seems like the archived factsheets are removed from the trash bin after some days, so just wondering what is the most efficient way of creating a tracking system for these factsheets?My initial idea is to take out exports of archived factsheets in a table view and manually append the data regularly in a locally stored file. Can this be automated and perhaps even be visualised on a LeanIX dashboard instead?Thanks in advance for any suggestions! :) 

Hello to the community. I’m the Lead Enterprise Architect with Amey PLC. We started our journey with LeanIX last week. I was wondering is there are any pearls of wisdom anyone could share on things they would do different now they are experienced with the product? 

I am starting doing some use cases to study, and I am a little confused on when I can use Business Context or Business Capabilities… Is there any way to differentiate them? Is there any naming convention suggested for each of them?

Hello! Can I get some guidance on how to use the log data in LeanIX for reporting purposes? At the moment I can only see how to use the factsheet data readily available in the Inventory tab, but nothing on the log details of the fact sheet.

How to model the relationship of Applications to platforms and IT components? Should the application relationship to IT components (making up the platform) be created if the relationship between the application and the platform is already established?For example, consider that there is an Analytics platform made up by a DataLake (IT component 1) and Machine Learning module (IT component 2). The Analytics platform is used to build the Customer Analytics application. How to model in this scenario? Case 1:Create relationship between Customer Analytics application withAnalytics Platform IT components - Data Lake and ML moduleAlso create the relation between the Analytics platform and both the IT ComponentsCase 2:Create relationship between the Customer Analytics application with Analytics platform only. The relationship between the Application and these 2 IT components is not required since the IT components are

Hi, What are the ways to export data from LeanIX?I don’t see any export button anywhere on the LeanIX page. I have the option to view and edit existing reports but not create new ones. My role is viewer.Also, according to me using an API to fetch data requires an API token but there is no option to generate any API token.Is the export functionality in LeanIX role dependent?Thanks.

Hello everyone -I’m new to LeanIX community and I did search to see if there was a similar question asked and didn’t find anything. Let me give some context before I ask the question: I am a business architect in a health insurance company that sells different types of health insurance “Products’. I’m documenting value streams, using Business Context fact sheets, across the organization and then linking Applications, which have their dependencies on the IT components. There are certain value streams that are either specific to a “Product” or multiple Products. Similarly there could be Applications that would be used for a specific Product. I need to create “Product-Specific” views in LeanIX. For example, I need to answer following questions:Which Applications support Product A? Give me a view of Product B value streams and the related Applications and IT Components? Here are my questions:How c

Hello,I’m trying to create a reportbut I need that on X-Axis appears the relation “Uses Platform”. Can you please support on this? Thanks.

Hello everyone,My current understanding is that behind most business capabilites there is a process that describes how this capability is achieved operationally. This process is modeled in SAP Signavio according to BPMN 2.0, for example.However, my understanding is also that certain capabilities can be used or activated within a process in order to support a process. Therefore, I have the following questions: Is it correct that business capabilities are used within a process to realize a higher-level capability? How can this relationship between capabilities and processes be represented in Signavio? So how do I illustrate in my BPMN, that the process describes “how” a certain capability is delivered? And how do I show other capabilities that are required for this process?Thank you very much for your support! 

Hi Community FellowsWe are new to LeanIX, I am exploring if anyone has experience in B2B integration flow ( IFDs) having trading partner ( external customer) mapped in LeanIX. A2A integration  where in sender and receivers are applications, it appears straightforward with interface factsheet. But any guidance on B2B would be helpful. RegardsKalpesh 

Hello,   I’m fairly new to using LeanIx tool for EA practice, within our organisation we have determined a few business products used by consumers and these products are supported by IT Components. The confusion we have is how do we link the business product to IT components without creating any applications. I understand we can change the out of the box meta model definition, just wanted to see if anyone has tried this approach before and if yes what implications does it have?  

Hello dear LeanIX Community, i am currently struggling with understanding the concept of the fields Provider Application and Consumer Applications on the Interface Fact Sheet. As I understand it, it has nothing to do with the direction of the data flow. But how can I identify which application is the provider and which one is the consumer of the interface?And also when should I use Logical Interface and when API as the subtype of the Fact Sheet?Thank you very much.

I’ve been trying to pull all application Factsheets from the /factsheet API, specifying criteria in the body such as the “type” and a few select “fields” I want, and setting “false” values on things like tags and subscriptions. However, when running the request, I still get all factsheets regardless of type, all fields, all tags, all subscriptions etc. I must be doing something wrong, but I am not sure what. Any ideas or any examples how I can use the GraphQL API to do this (I’m unfamiliar with GraphQL so I’ve been sticking to REST)?Thanks in advance!

Dear Member, I would like to know if we can export the LeanIx presentation in powerpoint or any other format. Thanks,Awadhesh

Hello, I am relatively new to Bosch and I will be creating an SOP document for a new tool we are developing for use within MA-SNA.  I am wondering if there is any kind of LEAN template or rubric that will enable me to create this template in a “Bosch” way.  Thanks in advance!

Hi,is there anyone with a good example of the InboundRelation-Processor from the Integration api. In the documenation and the examples i only could find ways to create relations through external ids.Thank you for help,best Daniel 

How does one collapse interfaces after clicking the arrow to expand them? I’ve been searching for hours and this seems like something very simple to achieve but I cannot find it. Once you expand an Interface from a data flow diagram, there doesn’t appear to be a way to revert it back to the “unexpanded” view you previously had.
