Mobile mode configuration
To integrate Connections Engagement Center in the Connections mobile app, configure the mobile-config.xml file on the Deployment Manager.
Step | Instructions |
---|---|
1 | Open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and then change to the following directory of the system on which you installed the deployment manager: app_server_root/profiles/dm_profile_root/bin |
2 | Enter the following command to start the wsadmin client: wsadmin -lang jython -user {admin_user_id} -password {admin_password} -port {SOAP_CONNECTIOR_ADRESS_PORT} |
3 | Enter the following command to access the HCL Connections configuration: execfile(mobileAdmin.py) |
4 | Check out the mobile config file to a directory of your choice and make a back-up of this file: MobileConfigService.checkOutConfig ("<directory>", "<cell-name>") |
5 | Open the mobile-config.xml file, locate the <Applications> section, and add the following configuration to that section. If you have already integrated another application, add the Connections Engagement Center configuration at the end of the section. <Applications> <Application name="icec-app" enabled="true"> <ApplicationIcon> <Android> <XXXHdpi>/icec/xxxhdpi/home_icec.png</XXXHdpi> <XXHdpi>/icec/xxhdpi/home_icec.png</XXHdpi> <XHdpi>/icec/xhdpi/home_icec.png</XHdpi> <Hdpi>/icec/hdpi/home_icec.png</Hdpi> <Mdpi>/icec/mdpi/home_icec.png</Mdpi> <Ldpi>/icec/ldpi/home_icec.png</Ldpi> </Android> <IOS> <Reg>/icec/IOS/home_icec_normal.png</Reg> <Retina>/icec/IOS/home_icec_normal@2x.png</Retina> </IOS> <BB> <HighDensity>/icec/hdpi/home_icec.png</HighDensity> <MedDensity>/icec/mdpi/home_icec.png</MedDensity> <LowDensity>/icec/ldpi/home_icec.png</LowDensity> <DefaultLocation>/icec/xxhdpi/home_icec.png </DefaultLocation> </ApplicationIcon> <ApplicationLabel>{LABEL for Connections Engagement Center}</ApplicationLabel> <ApplicationURL>{YOUR_DOMAIN}/xcc/mobile?page={MOBILE_PAGE}</ApplicationURL> </Application> </Applications> |
6 | Locate the <ApplicationsList> section, and add the Connections Engagement Center application to this list. <ApplicationsList>icec-app,profiles,communities,files,filesync,wikis,activities,forums,blogs,bookmarks</ApplicationsList> |
7 | (Optional) To select the Connections Engagement Center as Default Application in the Connections Mobile App, locate the <DefaultApplication>Updates</DefaultApplication> section and replace it with the name you used for the <Application enabled=true name=icec-app> setting. <!-- DefaultApplication: The application that the user is taken to after the login.--> <DefaultApplication>Updates</DefaultApplication> |
8 | (Optional) To hide the navigation or address bar, locate the <ApplicationURL> section and add the following parameter: ibmextintegrated=hideAddressBar or ibmextintegrated=hideNavigation . ibmextintegrated=hideAddressBar hides just the address. The navigation buttons and action button will remain. ibmextintegrated=hideNavigation hides the whole navigation bar. The web page must have web-based controls for navigation to provide previous, next, and reload functionality. For example, to remove the address bar you would create the following URL: <ApplicationURL>https://{YOUR_DOMAIN}/xcc/mobile?page={MOBILE_PAGE}&ibmextintegrated=hideAddressBar</ApplicationURL> |
9 | Check in the configured file with the following command: MobileConfigService.checkInConfig(<directory>, <cell-name>) |
10 | Open the <CUSTOMIZATION_DIR>/mobile directory, then copy the icec folder from of the Connections Engagement Center package's mobile folder to the <CUSTOMIZATION_DIR>/mobile folder. |
11 | Finally, fully synchronize the nodes first and restart the HCL Connections servers. |
12 | Now you can use the Connections Engagement Center in the HCL Connections Mobile App on iOS and Android devices. |
