Hi @Mehdi,

Welcome to the community :+1:

Can you please, describe more context and the steps that you did take to add the roles for each interface?
Reading the Capella user guide, I am not able to find that Exchange Mechanism within an Exchange Item.

Thanks,

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. It’s not my work, it’s a screenshot from a tutorial.
I’d like to know if it’s possible to build this type of diagram with the interface and the two components shown.
I’m working on an older version of capella, and I was wondering if any updates had made it possible to create this type of diagram. Below is another capture of this type that I found in help content.
IDB diagram

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Mehdi,

I have just created a new Interface Diagram Blank on my Capella 6.0, attached below:

You may also need to create Class Diagrams Blank (CDB) to create data (e.g., classes) and the Exchange Items.

Maybe this webpage may help with the data concepts: Data modelling.

If you are working on older Capella version, it should be easy to migrate to a newer version: How to migrate Capella project.

I hope that helps,

Hello @HelderCastro ,

I right-clicked on the structure folder in the project explorer and indeed, I can create an IDB.

Thank you for your help !
