Importing CTM Templates into Design Studio

You import CTM templates into Design Studio if you want to use the generated service actions in your activation tasks for IP Service Activator.

This procedure requires an activation IP Service Activator project in Design Studio and assumes you already have a valid CTM template file.

To import a CTM template into Design Studio:

Create a CTM template.

For more information about creating CTM templates or invoking them from the IP Service Activator UI, see IP Service Activator Concepts and IP Service Activator System Administrator's Guide.
In Design Studio, create an Activation IP Service Activator project.

See "Creating an Activation IP Service Activator Project" for more information.
Switch to the Studio Projects view.
Right-click in the Studio Projects view.
From the context menu, click Import and select IPSA CTM Template.

The IPSA CTM Template Import Wizard dialog box appears.
Do all the following:
- From the Project list, specify into which activation IP Service Activator project you want to import the CTM template.
- Click the Browse option that is next to the CTM Template field.
  
  The Select CTM Template XML dialog box appears.
- Navigate to the CTM template file and click OK.
Click Finish.

The IPSA CTM Template Import Wizard generates the following entities in the specified activation IP Service Activator project:
- atomic action
- CTM template
- service action
These entities are fully modeled and cannot be modified in Design Studio. The Design Studio editors for these entities are read only.
Add the activation IP Service Activator project as a dependency to an Order and Service Management cartridge project.

You add the dependency to use the generated service actions in an activation task.
