Connecting to Mart

You can save a reverse engineered model at a predefined location in your mart. However, to save a model to a mart, you need to be connected to it.

Connecting to Mart On Cloud (With SSO user) using API is restricted.

For more information on saving a reverse engineered model to a predefined location on the mart, refer to the Setting Reverse Engineering Options topic.

Ensure that you have configured and initialized erwin Mart Portal.

   Use SSL

   Specifies that you want to connect to the Mart through a secured connection. SSL lets you access the Mart through a secured connection.
