The BioPortal Import Plugin allows the user to import classes or entire class trees from external ontologies stored in the
BioPortal ontology repository.
The BioPortal Import plugin is added as an additional button on the OWL Classes Tab in Protege-OWL.
The basic steps in using the plugin are to:
Download. The plugin is bundled with the Protege installation. However, new versions of the plugin may become available sooner, and they will be published and can be downloaded from the plugin wiki page.
Support. The plugin is actively developed and maintained by the Protege team. If you have any questions or problems with the plugin, please post a message on the protege-owl mailing list. Instructions for posting on the Protege mailing lists are found here.
