To create a Universal Extension:
Define a new Template/Task in the user interface for a Universal Extension using the Universal Template/Task framework, including:
Task fields required for defining and launching the process through the Universal Extension.
Task Instance fields required for capturing data coming back throughout the life-cycle of the Universal Extension process.
Task Instance commands, and their supported status(es), that can be executed through the Universal Extension.
Universal Events, if any, the Universal Extension may generate throughout the life-cycle of the Universal Extension process.
- Upload/attach an Extension Archive zip file to the Universal Template, recognized by the Universal Agent, which can either be deployed on-demand to registered agents, or automatically following a successful agent registration.
- Once the Universal Template is created, and the Extension Archive zip file is attached, generate a zip package recognized by Universal Controller that contains both the Universal Template definition and the Extension Archive zip file recognized by the Universal Agent.
