Importing a Module

Importing modules is a way to use pre-built functionalities and take advantage of ready-to-use resources. There are two ways to import a module: from Other Workspaces and from IAC.

Below, we’ll detail the steps required to import a module based on the chosen method.

Step-by-Step

1. In the Modules area, click “Import” located on the right side.

2. Next, the Import Module modal will appear on the screen. The available import methods are organized into separate tabs.

1. To set it up, choose the way you want to import the module and follow the steps:

Other spaces

In this area you can import modules from another workspace you are part of.

Only modules from workspaces you are part of will be shown, provided the modules are shared. Otherwise, no items will be shown.

To import from other spaces:

1. In the tab for importing modules from other workspaces, choose the workspace you want.

2. The platform will show the total number and list of existing modules, and you can use the search bar to look for a specific item.

   When you find the module, in addition to the versioning and description (if any), there are the "Details" and "Import" buttons:

   • Details: button for more information about the item, such as its settings.

   • Import: button to start the process of importing the content into the workspace.

   In both you can import the module, but in "Import" the process is carried out automatically. While "Details" will display information and the "Import" button.

IAC

In the IAC tab, you can import a module via an.iac file. Learn more about IAC here.

To start the module import process, the first step is to drag or select the file in the upload area.

Once the file has been uploaded, you will see its name and size displayed on the screen. In a few moments, the option to click on the "Import module" button will be available.

If your file doesn't match the schema, the platform will show you a list of all the errors that need to be corrected. Correct the errors and redo the loading process until you get a complete validation message, like the one seen in the screenshot above.

To delete the file, click on the trash can icon.
