Sharing MADE Environments Library
How to share the unique Environments library with other users. If you are creating unique Environments to leverage (e.g., for Mission Profiles) and wish to share the environment library with other MADE users, follow this guide.
This is NOT a synchronization. This needs to be repeated each time you wish to update another user's Environments.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This method completely overwrites your original Environment Library. Any unique Environments in your original library that are not also in the library you're receiving will be lost.
Part 1: Sharing your Environments Library
- Navigate to the folder that your Environments library file resides in:
C:\Users\[your user ID]\MADe\environment\taxonomy\EnvironmentalSelect the environments file "MADe_Environment_Library_User" ending with extension ".xml". - Attach and send the .xml environment file to the other MADE user(s) you want to share it with via your preferred method (e.g., email, MS Teams messaging, etc.) — attach the file just like you would any other file.
Part 2: Accessing the shared Environments library
- Once you receive the other user's .xml Environment file, download and save the provided .xml file to the folder that your Environments library resides in:
C:\Users\[your user ID]\MADe\environment\taxonomy\EnvironmentalIt will notify you that an existing file has the same name — select to replace the existing file. - Open MADE, navigate to the Environment Library, and confirm that you see the changes to the list of Environments available to you (e.g., new ones added, old ones removed, details updated, etc.).
