TIBCO Mobilespace

TIBCO Mobilespace is available from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. Mobile users can use Mobilespace to access business services, and process work items from a smart phone or tablet.

A mobile user visits the app store for their mobile device, and downloads Mobilespace. When they first open Mobilespace, they will need to enter the URL for the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM runtime, and their logon credentials. They only need to enter this information once because Mobilespace stores the information between sessions. However, if they choose to log out, they will need to enter this information again when they next log on.

An example URL is: https://amx-bpm-server/apps.

Mobilespace includes a standard application: Mobile Case Manager. The mobile user opens Mobile Case Manager, or a custom mobile application, if available. Through these applications, they can manage cases and access business services and work items to complete their daily tasks. They can choose and configure their favorite application.

See: Mobilespace User Video.

A mobile user needs business services and work items that are applicable for a mobile format. TIBCO Business Studio includes a Publish option for business services to set the Target Device to either Desktop or Mobile. Mobile users can access business services that have the Target Device set to Mobile.

Use Application Development to customize an application for use with Mobilespace. The process is exactly the same as for desktop applications. Mobile applications use two particular settings in the ApplicationName.app.desc.json file. Without one of these settings, the application will not be available to Mobilespace.

Mobilespace is a fully featured mobile app for Apple iOS and Google Android, it has access to the device native API, and does not require mobile specific forms. By contrast, Openspace Mobile uses the system web browser, it does not have access to the device native API, and does require mobile specific forms.
