Inviting Modelers to Edit a Diagram

After you created or updated a diagram you can notify your fellow modelers and invite them to further refine the diagram. If you noticed that a diagram has not been updated for a long time, you can invite your colleagues to check and make updates if necessary.

With Invite modeler to edit, you can send registered workspace users an invitation to edit diagrams. Unless configured otherwise, all modelers in your workspace can edit diagrams that are stored in the Shared documents folder. If you try to open a diagram while it is being edited by someone else, a warning is shown. You can still edit the diagram, but if you save, you override the changes made by your colleagues.

To send an invitation email, proceed as follows:

1. Select a diagram.

2. Choose Share  Invite modeler to edit in the menu bar.

3. In the dialog, all registered users with editing rights are displayed on the left. Select the people you want to invite.

4. Optional: Customize the invitation message.

5. Send the invite.

   An invitation email is sent to all selected users.
