How to move PCB projects from SVN (or any other external source) into Altium365
- Tools → Item Manager, then choose “Automatch” to match each component to the corresponding one in the Altium365 library
- Create an ECO. Disable “Remove Parameter” and “Change Parameter Value” changes. Execute the remaining changes.
- If any parts fail, manually go into the properties for each part and change the “Source” field to University of Toronto Aerospace Team under Managed Vaults. Pick “clean” at the pop-up window.
- All parts should now be sourced from Altium365, so we must now remove all linked files. You’ll find these under the Libraries and Settings tabs under the project. Right click, select “Remove from Project” and then CHOOSE TO EXCLUDE IT FROM PROJECT.
- Make sure that all sheets are local to the project folder and not referenced elsewhere.
- Right click on the project and choose “Make Project Available Online”. Check the box for adding to Altium365 version control. If you forgot to unlink any files, it’ll complain here.
- Rename the project appropriately, press OK, migrate the project, and begin the upload! This will require you to make a final commit in SVN as the files change their version control provider.
- Verify that the upload worked correctly by opening Altium365 and viewing the project!
