Library Importer Improvements (former Library Migrator)

Importing file-based libraries from your local computer or network drive to your Altium 365 workspace can be done using the Library Importer.

Altium’s Library Migrator was renamed Library Importer—the feature’s name was changed to conform more closely to the tool’s purpose.

Not only is its name new, but our team has also made several user experience improvements. We have updated the documentation to reflect this change. The list of updates includes:

  • New, intuitive user interface.

  • Along with the current method for accessing the Library Importer, the Library Importer can now be launched for an installed library listed on the Installed tab of the Advanced File-based Libraries dialog.

  • Also, the Library Importer can be launched for an integrated library when opening.
  • Validation now checks for empty Workspace folder paths, conflicting system parameters, and duplicate models.

We suggest that you start by importing an example library (included with the Altium Designer installation). Importing Libraries to Altium 365 explains how to complete the import process.
