Import a Board

If you import a board into DesignStudio that was not initially built in DesignStudio, the drag and drop features in the Components tray will not work as expected. In this case, you must update the board using Code mode.

When you import a board, you choose from two import options:

• Import from WebEOC gives you access to all boards available through the selected connection Link to a WebEOC instance or environment, used as a step within a publish profile.. Connections are established by administrators through Settings > Board Settings. For information about connections, see Add Publish Profiles in Boards.

• Import from File allows you to upload a board in .web (WebEOC-generated board) or .json (DesignStudio-generated board) format.
