Downloading Property Definitions

You can download property definitions for a single property or for all properties from the property work list or the property inspector. The downloaded information includes base parameters as well as any application and node type overrides for the properties.

This enables you to, for example, filter and visually compare property parameters at the base, application, and node type level in an offline file.

Downloading Definitions for a Single Property

You can download the definitions for a single property from the property work list or the property inspector.

To download definitions for a single property, perform an action:

  • From the property work list, in the Actions column of the property that you want to download the definitions for, click Actions action, and then select Download.
  • From the property inspector, in the left column click Download download.

    Note:

    You cannot download property definitions if you are in Edit mode in the property inspector. Click Save or Cancel to exit Edit mode in order to enable the download button.

The property definitions are downloaded to an Excel file.

Downloading Definitions for All Properties

From the property worklist, click Download download to download property definitions for all properties to an Excel file.

Caution:

This operation could take several minutes if you have a lot of properties in your environment.
