Introduction
Analytical applications, or apps for short, provide the ability to package multiple views with their publishing options, scheduled jobs, and trend jobs into a single portable Application.
Apps can be used for:
- packaging a related set of views that can easily be migrated, for example from development to test and production, and published together in a single action
- creating a standard solution for other customers
Apps allow you to package your work into a single collection. This collection can be exported into a single XML file, imported as a new app, and published as a single entity.
Creating a New App
From the View menu, select "Add a new App". The following dialog will appear:
- Name - the name of your app
- Description - an optional description for documentation purpose
- Instance - optional. If you maintain more than one copy (instance) of the app you can name each instance. For example, you can have a "dev" instance and a "production" instance
