Edit a MARS app

This chapter describes the steps needed to edit a MARS app.

A MARS app contains:
  • Parameters (a version number, a description, documentation...)
  • Content (workflow and assets)
To add or to change the parameters and/or content of a MARS app of which you are the Maintainer, follow these steps:
  1. Go to the MARS app in My Apps > Installed.
  2. Select Edit.
  3. Enter or edit the parameters:
    • The icon on the top right: here you can change the icon of the MARS app. Hover over the icon, click to select an asset to use as icon and select Choose.
    • Description: here you can enter a description for the MARS app. The description is used in MARS by users to refer to the MARS app and is displayed next to the icon in the MARS app list.
    • Version: here you can enter a version for the MARS app. You can enter a version in the version field, or you can use the arrows to change the Major, Minor and Patch version.
    • Documentation Path: here you can define the path where the documentation file of the MARS app is located. See Add documentation and release notes to a MARS app for more information on how to add documentation to a MARS app.
    • Assets: here you can select assets to add to the MARS app.
      1. Select Add Asset....
      2. Select the asset.
      3. Select Choose.
      4. If needed, repeat to select another asset.
      Note: Make sure that the assets of the MARS app are located in a subfolder in the root of PP_FILE_STORE with an identical name as the MARS app.
    • Workflows: here you can select workflows to add to the MARS app.
      1. Select the workflow from the drop-down list.
      2. Select Add Workflow.
      3. If needed, repeat to select another workflow.
  4. Select Save.

The result is a MARS app in MARS > My Apps > Installed. The MARS app is installed on your local system. Since you have created the MARS app, you are the Maintainer.
