Initializing help system before first use

Getting Started

This section contains brief references to resources that will help you convert existing Xpress Mosel models to work with corresponding FICO® Xpress Insight apps, or import Xpress Insight apps into FICO® Xpress Workbench.

Creating an Xpress Workbench Project

A project contains all the source files that make up an optimization app. To create a new Xpress Workbench project in either the Desktop Edition or the FAC Edition, see the later topic named Creating a Project.

Open an Existing Xpress Workbench Project

To open a project in Xpress Workbench: see the later topic named Opening Projects in Chapter 3-Working with Projects.

Converting Xpress Mosel Models to Xpress Insight apps with the Desktop Edition

To open an existing Xpress Workbench project within the desktop version, see the later topic named Opening and Closing Projects with the Desktop Edition.

If you wish to convert existing Xpress Mosel models and build them into FICO® Xpress Insight apps, refer to Chapter 6 and subsequent sections of the Xpress Insight Developers Guide for Mosel.

Importing Xpress Insight apps to Xpress Workbench with the FAC Edition

Developers can import an Xpress Insight app into Xpress Workbench to continue development. The process is designed to be as streamlined as possible.

Perform the steps outlined below:

  1. Log in to Xpress Workbench and create a new project.
  2. Load your new project by clicking on its tile on the Home page.
  3. A new project contains some default files and folders which will not be needed. Using the right mouse-button menu, delete:
    • client_resources (folder)
    • model_resources (folder)
    • source (folder)
    • application.xml
  4. Using your operating system's file explorer, navigate to the root folder of your Xpress Insight app and upload all relevant files and folders into your new, now empty project.
