How to transfer MWO Custom Fields across different IFS environments?

Hi all,

When we create a Custom Field for the mobile app (MWO - ServiceEngApp), there are following 3 steps included.

  1. Creating the custom attribute in Entity Configuration. (Solution Manager> Configuration> Entity Configurations> Entity Configuration)
  2. Adding the custom attribute in Mobile App Entity. (Solution Manager> Mobile Apps> Configuration> Entity Details)
  3. Adding the custom attribute in the mobile app’s page. (Solution Manager> Mobile Apps> Configuration> Apps for Page Designer)

Out of these 3, only #1 can be included in an Application Configuration Package (ACP). Therefore, what is the best way to handle migration/ deployment of the other 2 items across different environments, without manually creating them again?

 

Any insight on how you have managed this is highly appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Dulshan.

Hi ​@dulshand1 ,

 

#1 and #3 can be added to the ACP. 

Basically if you’re using MWO Service, the Page Configuration can added to an ACP. 

 

When I’m adding a new Custom Attribute, I add the attribute and the Page Config to the ACP. Then I always do the Mobile App Entity step manually.

Thanks ​@Marcel.Ausan  for pointing this out. I overlooked #3 in Page Configurations. Guess we’ll have to manually do the Mobile App Entity changes.
