Save the App
Once you are satisfied with app, continue to the Done step to define which devices the app can be used in and to save this app.
1. Enter a Name for the app.
This name also typically appears as the title for the app. You can hide the title, if you choose, when you use it in Mashboard or the AppDepot or when you publish or embed the app in other environments.
MashZone NextGen uses the app name to assign a unique identifier to the app. App names can contain characters from the character sets supported by theMashZone NextGen repository, numbers, spaces, tabs, line ends and these common symbols: _ ~ - * ' .
2. Enter a short Description for the app.
3. Optionally, select or enter meta data for this app including:
Category = the primary purpose, product, area of interest, aspect or other grouping for this artifact or resource. Categories define what an artifact pertains to. Categories are defined by MashZone Next Gen administrators. Provider = the organization, department or group who provides or is responsible for the information in this artifact or resource. Providers define who or where information comes from. This can be external sources or systems or groups within your own organization. Providers are defined by MashZone Next Gen administrators. Tags = one subject, purpose or other aspect of this artifact or resource. Tags define a finer grain of what an artifact is about. Artifacts can have any number of tags. Tags are defined by users. You can enter multiple tags, separate by commas. If the tag does not already exist, this also creates a new tag.
4. Select which devices the app can be used in. The
Desktop option is set, by default. If this app is mobile-compatible, set the
Phone and/or
Tablet options as desired. See
About Desktop Compatibility for Apps for more information.
5. Click Create this App.
The app is turned on and is now visible in MashZone NextGen Hub. You can:
Publish the app to the
AppDepot to make it available to other users in
AppDepot (for desktop devices) or in the
MashZone NextGen Mobile apps (for mobile devices). See
Publish Apps to the
AppDepot for details.
