# How Do I: Import Files into a Schemas Project Folder?

When a schema (XSD or MFL file) is imported into your application, representations of these schemas are available in various WebLogic Workshop panes. To learn more about XSD and MFL files, see Importing Schemas. In addition, Java interfaces for accessing the data represented in the schemas are generated. To learn more about these Java classes, see "Java Classes Created from Importing Schema" in Programming Transformations.

You can also import channel files into schema project folders. This ensures that your Channel files are globally accessible throughout your WebLogic Workshop application. To learn more about how to create channel files and subscribe to Message Broker channels, see Publishing and Subscribing to Channels

To Import a File into a Schemas Project Folder

To make the schemas in XSD, MFL, and Channel files available in your business process application, you must import them into a Schemas project folder.

1. In the Application tab, right-click a Schemas folder.

Note: If the Application tab is not visible in WebLogic Workshop, choose View —> Application from the menu bar.

2. From the drop-down menu, select Import.

The Import Files dialog box is displayed.

3. Browse the file system to select the file that you want to import.
4. Click Import.

When a XSD or MFL file is imported, a build of the current Schemas project folder is triggered. The build verifies that the schema file is well formed. For XSD files, it also verifies that the element and attribute names in the XML Schema do not conflict with the XSD files that have previously imported into the current Schemas project folder. To learn more about what gets generated when you import schemas, see Importing Schemas.
