In the BPMN editor, the Service panel shows all libraries available in the service. Use the panel to manage your libraries and to use its contents during modeling on the execution pane.

How to Add a Library

	If you want to add your own libraries to a service, hover over the Libraries folder in the service panel and use option Manage Libraries .
	The dialog Manage Libraries opens. All libraries that have been uploaded to the current namespace are shown in this dialog: Currently unused libraries are displayed on the left side of the window. The libraries that are already used in this service are shown on the right side. Expand the drop-down lists to display the details of each library such as versions and dependencies.
	To add an unused library to the project, click Add library .
	The library is now displayed in the column Used Libraries. If you have finished, click Save to persist your changes.
	The added library is now displayed in the service panel and you can use it during modeling.
	Use option Documentation to display the documentation of a library. You can find it in the Manage Libraries dialog...
	... as well as in the service panel when you hover over a library.
	If documentation is available, it will be opened in a new browser tab. This allows developers to access library documentation at any time during the development process.

Adding Libraries With Dependencies

	Libraries may have dependencies between each other. The Designer supports you to add all necessary libraries: When you add a library that contains dependencies...
	... the Designer also adds all dependent libraries.
	If you add a library, that contains dependencies but not all dependent libraries are available in the current namespace...
	... the missing library is added, but highlighted in red. In that case, go to the library administration and upload the missing library to the namespace to make it available in your service.

How to Update a Library

Using an Updated Library

In the Designer administration, you can update a library version, see Administrating Libraries > Updating a Library for further information.

Please note, that updated libraries are not automatically updated in the services. If you update the version of a library in the Designer administration, you need to save the library in the service again.

Proceed as follows:

	Follow the steps to update the library in the Designer administration.
	Go to the service where you use the library. Use the icon on the Libraries folder in the service panel to open the Manage Libraries dialog. Since you used this library in your service already, it is displayed in section Used Libraries. To ensure that the updated version is loaded into the service, just click the Save button.

Switching Between Library Versions

The Designer allows you to upload several versions of a library. The developer can switch between versions which allows him to decide with which library version he wants to work.

Once a library has been added to a service, all available versions are shown.

The version in use receives the addition Current Version.

If you want to switch to another version, use icon to load the desired version.

The selected version is loaded and marked as Current Version.
