Adding Module
In Plateau Studio, once you creat an application, you can enhance its functionality by adding modules, where you can create and manage screens, data models, and processes.
When adding a module, you have two options: Creating New Module and Importing an existing one.
Creating New Module: Allows you to start fresh, building a module tailored to your specific requirements.
Importing a Module: Provides the convenience of utilizing an existing module. You can import a module that has been previously created.
How to Create a New Module?
When you have an application created, you can add modules to manage your screens, data models and processes.
Click + Add New on the bottom left corner.
Select Create new module from the menu.
Enter module name and description in the pop-up screen.
Click Create.
How to Define Versions to Your Modules?
With versioning your modules, you can share your modules as versioned with other applications in your organization.
To define versions to your modules, go to Actions menu of a module and click Share Module.
You'll see 2 options in the pop-up: Reference Module and Version Module
Reference Module: Any changes that you make to this module will affect other apps where you have imported this module.
Version Module: Your changes will not affect other applications and you can relase versions of this module.
