Components and Component Services

Business components and business component services can be used to develop case management applications.

Business Components

Business components are used to render BPM-related controls in an application. These can be used as building blocks to create a client application. Business components are BPM-specific components, implemented as AngularJS directives, that can be embedded in an application as HTML elements.

For information about the business components that are related to cases, see "Business Components Reference" in the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Client Application Developer's Guide.

Business Component Services

Business component services are used to perform BPM-related functions that would require several calls to the lower-level objectAPI. They can be used to extend or change existing business components, or to build new custom components. Business component services are fully functional AngularJS services that can be consumed by AngularJS clients. They make it much easier to perform certain BPM functions that require the use of multiple calls when done directly from the objectAPI.
