Create Application

Creating an application in the system is done through the dedicated user interface panel. The process involves defining the application’s core identity and functionality, as well as specifying its intended purpose and usage.

    • Defines the functions the application performs upon deployment.

    • If no options are selected, the application can still associate objects and store data for those objects, effectively functioning as a database. These switches control what tools/features are available for this Application:
