Managing Direct Models
Management of direct models typically involves managing saving and sharing permissions, opening and editing the model, and reprocessing the model
Save Direct Models
Direct models are automatically saved to your personal content folder when they are produced. You can open the model file in the full Model Pro app in order to set security permissions to the materialized model and database, and to save the model file to a different directory and share it with other user roles.

Open and Edit Direct Models
Direct Model files are stored in the content manager, where they can be shared with others and opened for editing and reprocessing.
When editing a direct model, you can make changes to the semantic model and to the security permissions. To edit an existing data model you must access its definition file, which will be opened in the Model Pro module.

Rerun Direct Models
If you make changes to the semantic model (like editing measures, or renaming a table) or to the security permissions, you'll need to reprocess the model for these changes to be reflected in the materialized model.
