Service definitions

• About service definitions
  Developers with programming knowledge can create service definitions to define a Web API for use by Mobile Enterprise Platform. This allows developers to use third-party Web APIs in order to integrate with external systems, such as payment processing services. Mobile Enterprise Platform's Web services implementation supports SOAP, WSDL, and RESTful APIs.
• Create and edit service definitions
• Test a service definition
  You can test a service definition in the editor.
• View apps and app items
  Apps and app items can be viewed in view-only mode. In this mode, you can access their elements but cannot change the information.
• Delete an app or app item
  You can delete unnecessary apps and app items. Deleting destroys all instances for all promotion levels. An app or app item cannot be deleted if it is checked out.
• Print service definitions
• View history and roll back apps and app items
  The history of an app or app item can be viewed in the Item History dialog box. The Item History dialog box also allows for rolling back to earlier versions of the app or item. For files in the Repository, if a file is edited and uploaded again with the same name, its version number is increased. You can roll back to an earlier version if necessary.
• Undo checkout for an app or app item
  Current edits to an app or app item can be undone by undoing checkout. Even after changes have been saved, the checkout can still be undone to discard the most recent changes. When undoing checkout, the app or app item remains at the same version as when editing was begun. Checkout cannot be undone to discard the most recent edits if the edits have been checked in.
• Upload and download service definitions
• Find references in Application Studio
  In Application Studio there are references from items to other items. For example, you may want to find all the references to a particular repository image in forms, or to find which apps reference a particular subapp. References can be found in projects for an item in the project tree, but not for a project itself. References can be found for all apps and items.
• About pristine objects
  A pristine object can be any Application Studio item with the exception of Repository files and Style Groups. Pristine objects are delivered by Advanced Inventory.
