Wanting to import a BPMN into a UML model, it is mandatory to have the Cameo Business Modeler plugin installed.

If you have already saved a BPMN definition outside the current Builder project, you import it by selecting Import > BPMN 2.0 from the E2E Model Compiler menu.

Navigate to the XMI file, select it, and click OK. Note that sometimes the file extension .xml may be visible depending on the settings of your operating system.

The selected file can be imported into either an existing or a new UML model (see below).

  • When importing into a new model, the importer will import the BPMN process and generate the process state machine and all UML elements that are necessary for the implementation of the process.
  • When importing to an existing model, the importer will just update the import file. If you made profound changes to the process, you will have to update the process state machine and the UML model manually.

The import process may also be canceled clicking Cancel.

Importing BPMN into a New UML Model

Wanting to import a BPMN definition into a new UML model, proceed as follows.

New UML models that are created by importing WSDL / XSD files are not based on the Bridge template and can be used as a module. You may want to import such models into another UML model that is based on the Bridge template later.
