Managing Applications

Manage multiple native, hybrid, and Agentry applications from a single location. You can add, edit, or delete applications;and ping a selected application for back-end connection and authorization URL status. View information for all applications, or retrieve a filtered subset of applications. From the list of applications, you can drill down to see application ID and application registration details; and a sequential log of request execution details.

  1. From Management Cockpit, select Applications on the Home screen to view applications. Alternatively, in the Applications tab, click Applications.
    Field Value
    Application ID Unique identifier for the application, in reverse domain notation. This is the application or bundled identifier that the application developer assigns or generates during application development. The administrator uses the Application ID to register the application to SAP Mobile Platform Server, and the client application code uses the Application ID while sending requests to the server.
    Name Application name.
    Type Application type.
    Vendor Vendor who developed the application.
    Status Indicates whether the application is consistent, meaning its back-end connection is valid.
    Registrations The number of current user registrations to the application. Registered applications are associated with a user, anonymous user, or nosec_identity on one or more devices. When the user accesses the application from a device the application is registered. A zero (0) indicates there are no current user registrations to the application.
    Logs A list of log statements captured during request execution (such as GET, SET, PUT, and so forth). The data is collected and persisted in the database depending on the Application log level setting, and is a useful troubleshooting tool for debugging an application problem.
  2. (Optional) Use filtering and sorting options to display a subset of applications:
    • In Filter By, select ID, Name, Type, or Vendor, and enter a name or number to search for a specific entry.
    • Use column sorting and filtering to display only records that meet your criteria.
    • Click Refresh to refresh the data.
  3. (Optional) View details about a specific application registration:
    • Select an Application ID URL to view application usage details for the application. The Applications > Overview screen appears, if the application is registered; otherwise Applications > Backend appears.
    • Select a Registrations URL to view more details about application registrations. The Applications > Registrations screen appears if there are valid registrations.
    • Select the Logs icon to view the list of request executions for the application (if enabled). The Logs dialog appears, from which you can view the execution requests.
