Okay--so I'm going to ask a really stupid question: how do I install this? Downloading the file gives me an XIF file. Outsystems will only let me open .oml files. Is there a video on this? Also, is there a video on how to use extensions from the Forge rather than modules?
Thanks in advance!
Service Center -> Factory -> Extensions -> Choose file ( select your .xif file ) -> 1-Click Publish
after successfully published, you can add a reference using Manage Dependency.
Hi Rick,
A XIF file means that it is an Extension. Extensions can be open and edited through Integration Studio. They can also be published through Integration Studio or Service Center.
To further understand what Extensions are, you can read the following documentation: Extensions
How to deploy an extension to your environment, you can see this page that explains how to 1-click publish it, for example through Service Center: 1-Click Publish an Extension in Service Center
Whatever elements the extension provides can be referenced in your modules. To know why, you can check this: Use the Extension in a Module
Cheers!
Thank you both for your help on this. There is an overwhelming amount of information to sift through, and streamlining it like this is extraordinarily helpful!
Hi Rick,A little extra tip: If you found their answers helpful, please mark them as a solution.
