Use filters to support uniform modeling and accelerated evaluation for each tenant. Filters provide users with only the information and methods relevant to them.
You can modify the set of connection types for each allowed model type that you make available to users with a filter.
Prerequisite
You have the ARIS Enterprise Administration license privilege.
You have the Configuration administrator function privilege.
If you have created your own method items, such as models, objects, symbols, attributes, and connections, on a different tenant, make sure to import the method filter that contains these user-defined method items into this tenant.
Procedure

Administration. The
Configuration view is shown.

filter to find a list entry.
Click Occurrences > Connections. All model types that you added to the filter are listed.
Select a model type to change the set of connections. Note that you must change the
set of connections for each allowed model type in turn. If types are missing, you
must first add them to the filter before you can proceed.
You can either select the connections from a list, or you can decide which object symbols or which object types are connected.

To allow the required connections, enable the controls in the Name column and click Allow. Use the
filter to quickly find connections or sort the columns.
