Navigating the Apromore Portal

The Apromore Portal is the first and primary interface that users access. One can navigate the workspace folders and perform various actions through the available plugins. This introduction covers the basics of the Apromore Portal.

Please refer to the various entries in the user guide for specific plugins information and capability.

To view the Apromore portal, log in using valid credentials.

The Apromore Portal appears after successfully logging in.

Once logged in, we can explicitly log out by going to the user menu and clicking Sign out. However, after 30 minutes of inactivity, the session will automatically expire, consequently logging us out. Five minutes before this timeout, a pop up window displays the remaining time before the session expires. We can click on the pop up window to keep the session alive or log out.

The workspace folder structure/folders tree is on the left-hand side of the portal window in the My workspace area. We can expand/collapse individual folders by using the arrow icon next to each folder.

We can also expand/collapse all folders at once using the two icons located on the top-right of the folders tree.

../_images/Naviga003.png

The central area of the portal contains the file view. The file view shows folders, process models (represented by a flowchart icon), and event logs (represented by a logbook icon). We can view the files either in grid or list format.

We can see the details such as version, last update time, the description and the owner of a process model in the Details view.

../_images/Naviga006.png

Note

The Details view is populated only when a process model is selected

We can double-click on a process model to edit it using the BPMN 2.0 standard in the BPMN Editor. Likewise, we can also double-click on an event log to analyze the process map or BPMN model from the selected log in the Process Discoverer.

We can access the user guide from the question mark button on the top-right corner of the Portal.
