Prerequisites
- Administrative access to your Polarion project
- Risksheet installed and configured in the project
Step 1: Understand the Default Path
Risksheet ships with a default template path:Risks/Risk Specification folder. If this folder does not exist in your project, create it in Polarion before users attempt to create documents.
Step 2: Set a Custom Template Path
To change where users can create risk documents:- Open Polarion Administration for your project
- Navigate to the Risksheet project properties section
- Update the template path property to your desired folder:
- Save the changes
Safety/FMEA Documents folder.
Step 3: Configure Multiple Paths
To support multiple risk methodologies in separate folders, specify comma-separated paths:
| Path | Use Case |
|---|---|
Risks/FMEA | Failure Mode and Effects Analysis documents |
Risks/HARA | Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (automotive ISO 26262) |
Risks/TARA | Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment (cybersecurity ISO/SAE 21434) |
Security/STRIDE | STRIDE threat modeling documents |
Step 4: Customize Document Labels
Along with template paths, you can customize how risk documents are labeled throughout the Risksheet interface:| Property | Default Value | Example Override |
|---|---|---|
| Tool name | Risksheet | FMEA Tool, Risk Matrix |
| Document name (singular) | Risk Analysis | FMEA Document |
| Document names (plural) | Risk Analyses | FMEA Documents |
Path Format Rules
When specifying template paths:- Use forward slashes (
/) as path separators - Paths are relative to the project root
- Separate multiple paths with commas (no spaces after commas)
- Path names must match the actual Polarion folder structure exactly (case-sensitive)
How Document Creation Uses Template Paths
When a user creates a new document through the Risksheet home page:- The home page displays available folders based on the configured template paths
- The user selects a folder and enters a document name
- The user chooses a template (FMEA, HARA, or custom)
- Risksheet creates the LiveDoc in the selected folder with the chosen template’s
risksheet.jsonconfiguration
Step 5: Verify the Configuration
After saving your template path changes:- Open the Risksheet home page in your project
- Click to create a new document
- Verify that all configured folders appear as options in the creation wizard
- Create a test document in one of the configured paths
