Developer Portal

A component of Archibus SaaS, the Developer Portal enables partners to offer customers specific personalization outside of the standard off-the-shelf Archibus SaaS modules. With the Developer Portal, partners can create new views and reports, as well as modify existing views and reports.

Since Archibus releases new versions and deploys new releases either through its own SaaS or through partners, partners are responsible for merging and deploying anything created on the Developer Portal.

The partner creates new views, DUW scripts, and workflow rules in new and separate folders, which do not interfere with future releases of Archibus software.

For modifications to existing views, the partner copies an existing view to a new folder, renames the file, makes changes to that view, and adds it to the Navigator. However, future improvements to the standard view are not incorporated into the modified view unless the partner mergers their changes with the standard view. Merging changes should be handled in partnership with Archibus.

The Developer Portal includes Web Central views. All changes to Workplace and mobile apps (current or new framework) are considered modifications to existing views, and therefore must include a merge process and should be handled in partnership with Archibus.
