The DTR is a solution that lists all digital twins (DT) and references their aspects including information about the underlying asset, asset manufacturer, and access options, like aspect endpoints. The DTR is also used to register and find data related to DTs. In general, every partner must proactively register their DTs/aspects to this service to reveal their “order” to share respective data sets. The data ordered by the DT is semantically described via mapping to the data models stored in the semantic hub.

Please follow these simple steps to set up an Digital Twin Registry (DTR):
Select the "Components" module from the sidebar on the left side of the Dataspace OS interface. In this section, you can create new components, and view all the components that you have previously created.
Click on the "+ Add Component" button located at the top-right corner of the screen.
In the "Type" dropdown menu, select "DTR" as the component type.
From the "Versions" dropdown menu, select the "latest version" unless you are required to use an old version.
Enter Component Details
Component Name: Enter a unique name for the component. This name will be used in the backend.
Display Name: Enter a display name. This name will be used to display the component in the user interface.
Description: Provide a brief description that gives an overview of the component.
Company/Department Name: Enter your company name or the name of the department you are associated with.
Cost Center: If applicable, enter your cost center number. If you do not have one, simply type "0".
Click the "Add" button to complete the creation of the DTR component.
After completion of the above mentioned steps, allow a couple of minutes for the DTR to be created. Once created, you can click on the DTR component to view all the component details, shell descriptions and registered EDCs (Eclipse Dataspace Connectors).
