    Resource Orchestration Service:Import a ROS template as an architecture template

    Last Updated:Jul 15, 2026

    Import a ROS template into the Architecture Editor to visualize your infrastructure as an architecture diagram.

    Note

    • If a ROS template lacks layout information, the Architecture Editor auto-arranges resources.

    • Complex templates may require manual layout adjustments for a more logical diagram.

    Prerequisites

    You have a ROS template. If not, create one by following Template Quick Start.

    The following sample template creates an EIP and an ECS instance:

    Procedure

    1. Log on to the ROS Architecture Editor console.

    2. In the left navigation pane, click Infrastructure Templates.

    3. On the Infrastructure Templates page, click Create Infrastructure Template. In the dialog box, select ROS or Terraform and click OK.

      Note

      You can import only ROS templates. Terraform templates are not supported.

    4. On the architecture template editor page, click the image.png icon in the upper-left corner. In the drop-down menu, click Import Template Content.

    5. In the Import Template Content dialog box, paste the template content and click OK. The Architecture Editor generates an architecture diagram from the template.
