Hi Community,

I would like to understand the main differences between developing/customizing .projection files in IFS Applications 10 and IFS Cloud.

I have experience with projection development in IFS Applications 10, and I am currently trying to understand how the same type of development should be approached in IFS Cloud.

In particular, I would like to understand whether there are significant differences regarding:

  • Projection file syntax and supported elements
  • Defining entities, entitysets, queries, actions and functions
  • Implementing custom business logic behind actions/functions
  • Usage of .plsvc files
  • Extending or overriding standard projections
  • MARBLE syntax and code generation
  • Security/grants for projection entities and actions
  • Deployment and customization structure
  • Using projections for Aurena/IFS Cloud Web pages versus external REST integrations

For example, if I have an existing projection customization developed for IFS Applications 10, can the same approach generally be used in IFS Cloud, or does it need to be redesigned according to the IFS Cloud development model?

Are there any recommended documentation, migration guidelines, or practical examples showing the differences between Apps 10 projections and IFS Cloud projections?

Any experiences or examples from developers who have worked with both versions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
