Article summary

Overview

The App Store is a repository of various business process applications, also known as Accelerators, that can be installed. These applications can be run as-is or customized, within the Studio, according to business needs. Depending on the selected application, the applications may contain pre-built Flows, Rules, Forms, Dashboards, or more advanced configuration options. Available applications can be found within the Decisions platform by navigating to the My Apps Folder.



Application Details

The APP DETAILS Page of a selected application will display the app's use case and what objects are contained within the application installation. Also, the Details Page hosts an Overview Video and Project Preview to give an inside look at what the application includes before installation.

Accelerators Index

Accelerators are Decisions projects that address Financial Services and Cross Industry pain points. These projects highlight what is possible in Decisions using best practices for Decisions development and UI/UX design. Developers can use Accelerators as starting points for new projects or integrate them into existing projects.

Each Accelerator has an article to walk through using the Accelerator and a video overview that can be found in the App Store.

Accelerators Availability 

These projects are built in the latest version at the time of development; they are not available for download in older versions. Accelerators are compatible with versions 8.0 and newer.
