Configure the extensions

Note: IntelaTrac is now AVEVA Mobile Operator. However, in some instances, you may see “IntelaTrac” in upgrade path, reports, and so on.

Extensibility APIs provide a mechanism to add new functionalities through custom functions to AVEVA Mobile Operator app. All extensions are synced to AVEVA Mobile Operator app during a Transfer.

To configure extensions

1. Configure all the extensions in the extensions.json file.

2. Copy the extensions.json and the related lua files to the following folder on the AVEVA Mobile Operator Server:
   <Installation Directory>\AVEVA\Mobile Operator\Server\Extensions\Multiplatform

3. On the AVEVA Mobile Operator app, use Transfer to sync data between the mobile device and the Server.

   The extensions are enabled for the AVEVA Mobile Operator.

   Note:
   - You must code extensions only with lua.
   - In case of new or updated extensions, use Transfer to sync the data between the mobile device and the AVEVA Mobile Operator Server.
