Use Plug‐in Studio to dynamically create tasks for your most frequently used operations. You can also edit and delete tasks here. For example, to modify a user, instead of selecting Modify Object, you can create a dynamic UI to edit only the attributes you have selected, such as first name or title. Data is stored in the TOMCAT_HOME/ webapps/nps/portal/modules/custom directory. From the Plug‐in Studio task, you can perform the following operations: • “Creating a New Task from Plug‐In Studio” on page 63 • “Editing a Task” on page 63 • “Deleting a Task” on page 64 • “Copying Custom Tasks” on page 64 62 Novell iManager 2.7.5 Administration Guide

Plug‐in type: Specify the type of task you are creating.

From this field, you can remove attributes from the task, change the control associated with an attribute, and modify the control properties for the attribute. Plug‐in Properties: Lets you specify a Plug‐in ID, assign the task to an RBS collection, and assign the task to a Role. The role you assign determines where this task appears in the Roles and Tasks Navigation frame. Editing a Task To edit an existing plug‐in with Plug‐in Studio: 1 In the Configure view, select Role‐Based Services > Plug‐in Studio. 2 Select the task, then select Edit. 3 Modify the settings described in “Creating a New Task” on page 58, then click Install. iManager displays a confirmation message indicating the plug‐in was successfully created and installed.
