Basic integration provides managed data exchange among SmartPlant Enterprise authoring tools using SmartPlant Basic Integrator. The publish and retrieve capabilities of basic integration are the same as the publish and retrieve capabilities of full integration, except that the published data is not loaded into the SmartPlant Foundation data repository for viewing and navigating. When you publish documents using basic integration, the SmartPlant Basic Integrator components load only the document metadata into SmartPlant Foundation. SmartPlant Basic Integrator cannot load published data.
Licensing determines the features available to SmartPlant Basic Integrator. SmartPlant Basic Integrator allows one concurrent user (named in perpet.dat) to access the SmartPlant Foundation Desktop Client.
For high-level diagrams showing the default data exchanges between integrated authoring tools, see Data Exchange Examples for Integration.
