Add a New Model to a Repository

Models are always created and managed within a repository. Most repositories will have just one model, but you can add as many as you want.

Multi-model repositories make sense when you have models that share objects. For example, you may create models around different facts that share common dimensions.

Procedure

To add a new model:

  1. In Design Center, open the Repo Browser and select the Repo and Branch for the repository you want to add a model to.
  2. In the Repo Browser, click the new object button and select Model.yml. A new model is added to the repository, and appears in the models/ folder in the Repo Browser.
  3. In the Edit Model pane, enter a Unique name for the model. This must be unique across all repositories and all subrepositories.
  4. Click Apply.
