How to convert your model to Obfuscated XMI

Astah support may ask you to provide your .asta file along with your bug report in case the log file was not sufficient to solve the issue.

If the .asta files contain any confidential information, you can obfuscate the file, so all the model names would be replaced with meaningless characters and numbers.

  1. Open your .asta file
  2. Go to [Tools] – [XML Input & Output] – [Save as Obfuscated XML Project [For Bug Report].

  3. A dialog box will appear. Confirm you would like to proceed by clicking [Yes].
