File formats

The files of a workspace are plain text: YAML, Markdown with YAML frontmatter, and JSON. Each page lists the fields of one format, its types and examples.

• Workspace file
• Local workspace overrides
• Element file frontmatter
• Metamodel file
• Evidence record (Datensatz), Markdown frontmatter
• Baseline file
• Saved filter file
• ReqIF mapping file
• Data of a state (Stand) as JSON
• API endpoint file

ReqSeq also keeps files for itself in its cache folder, which are not meant to be read or changed: Activity file (activity), Recent workspaces file (recent-workspaces).
