Create a Link to the Repository Once we have the EA model stored in the database, it is necessary to create a shortcut that will use the EaInfoport system. In the Enterprise Architect application, start the Save as shortcut command from the main menu (below the EA icon). Select the folder where you want to create the shortcut (e.g. C:\EAInfoport\Dataprojekt\ea.EAP) and confirm. As soon as you connect a new repository in the EaInfoport administration, you will work with this file. To verify the functionality of the link, first turn off the Enterprise Architect program. Then find the file with the link CC:\EAInfoport\Dataprojekt\ea.EAP on the disk and “run” it (double click). If Enterprise Architect also opened with our project, everything is set and saved correctly.
