Manually Updating a FICO Xpress Insight App from the Web Client

You can update the source files of an existing app via the web client. To do this you need a ZIP file containing the app source files that you wish to change.
The ZIP file may be a complete app, or it may instead contain one or more of the following:
  • An updated model file
  • An updated companion file
  • New or modified model resources
  • New or modified client resources
  • New or modified managed Tableau workbooks
  • New or modified app attachments
Within the web client, click the Actions menu (the cog icon towards the top right of your screen) and select Update App. Select your ZIP file when prompted, and then check the notification area at the bottom of the screen for errors or warning messages.
Note The updated model file must have the same schema as the original model file. Changes to the model may not be reflected in your scenarios until you reload them.
Note Model parameter values are captured when the scenario is first loaded. If an updated model file contains different default values for existing parameters, these will be ignored.
Note New or modified Tableau workbooks will not be published unless the ZIP file also includes a companion file which configures the workbooks as managed=true.
Note Changes to Tableau workbooks will not take effect for other logged-in users until they log out and log back in.
