Requirements and Limitations
You use MashZone NextGen Wires to create a mashup that SharePoint can access as an external content type. You use SharePoint Designer to define the external content type for mashups that are ECT-enabled and the external content lists based on these external content types.
Both MashZone NextGen and SharePoint must be configured properly to support communication between SharePoint and MashZone NextGen and between SharePoint Designer and MashZone NextGen. MashZone NextGen and SharePoint administrators must:
Enable one-way SSL for clients connecting to the
MashZone NextGen MashZone NextGen Server. This is required to allow
SharePoint Designer to use a secure connection when you create external content types and external content lists based on
MashZone NextGen mashups.
Use the Secure Service Store in
SharePoint to store credentials for
MashZone NextGen used in connections from
SharePoint and
SharePoint Designer to these mashups.
In addition to basic connection requirements, there are specific requirements and limitations on the mashup results that you can use in external content lists and on the maintenance that is possible to these mashups.
