Creating an App

You can create a Flogo® app from the Apps page.

    Procedure
  1. Log in to TIBCO Cloud™ Integration.
  2. On the Apps page, click Create/Import.

    The What do you want to build? dialog is displayed.

  3. To create a Flogo app: 
    • Under QuickstartAll app typesApps, click Create a Flogo app.
    • On the left, select a category that identifies the type of integration you need. On the right, click Create a Flogo app. In the block that displays below your selection, click Create Flogo app.
  4. The app is created and the App Details Page is displayed for the new app. By default, the app is named in sequential order in the format New_Flogo_App_<sequential_number>. For example, if you created three apps without renaming them, then the first one has a default name of New_Flogo_App_1, the second one is called New_Flogo_App_2 and, the third one is called New_Flogo_App_3. The version of a newly created app is 1.0.0 and is displayed as v: 1.0.0 beside the name of the app. You can edit the version of the app. For more information, refer to Editing the Version of an App.

  5. Edit the app name to a meaningful string. To do so, click anywhere within the app name and edit it, then click anywhere outside the text box to persist your change.
    Note: The app name must not contain any spaces. It must start with a letter or underscore. The app name can contain letters, digits, periods, dashes, and underscores.
  6. Click Create.

ResultThe Add triggers and flows dialog is displayed. You can now create one or more flows for the app. See the Creating a Flow topic and its subtopics for details on creating a flow.

When the app is created, the following files are generated in the <FLOGO_HOME>/apps/<app>/ directory:

  • flogo.json: contains the app itself.
  • manifest.json: contains the manifest details such as the endpoints, memory resource details. The manifest.json file is automatically updated whenever you modify the app.
