Procedure
- Extract the contents of wssdk_<version.build>.zip.
- In , select the component type for the SDK samples (for example,
Automatic Actions from the "Custom components type" list) and click Add.
- Browse to the SDK sample you want to upload (for example, <path you unzipped to>\samples\dist\autoaction_samples.zip) and click OK.
Results
You will now see the SDK samples you uploaded both in the list on the page and in the respective page for that type of object. For example, if you uploaded the SDK sample automatic actions, you will see them in the list of available actions in the workflow editor when you add an automatic action. All components defined in the uploaded archive will be added to WorldServer even if they are not of the type you selected from the drop down list. For example, if your component archive file has auto actions and triggers, and you load it from the auto action view, currently both the auto actions and the triggers will be loaded. You will only see the auto actions listed because you are on the auto action page. If you go to the triggers page, then you would see any components that were also added in that area.
In the uploaded components list, those that have been uploaded as samples have a check box next to them so you can delete them. Those that are core out-of-the-box objects do not have check boxes.
Note: In addition to these SDK samples that you can upload to WorldServer, SDL provides sample objects that are installed with WorldServer which you can import into WorldServer using the feature. Some of the sample objects that you can import have dependencies on certain SDK sample objects having already been uploaded. For example, the “Advanced Quote Approval Process Workflow” depends on the SDK sample “Set Quote Status” automatic action having already been uploaded. If you try to import the “Advanced Quote Approval Process Workflow” object before you upload the “Set Quote Status” automatic action SDK sample, the import will fail, and will tell you which object is required.
