Experience Type

||

The Experience Type extension registers your app as a new type of Showpad Experience, making it available in the Create New Experiences dialog in the Admin App.

What you'll learn:

• What the Experience Type extension does and where it appears in Showpad
• How to declare it in your manifest.json

Once an admin installs the app, they can create a Showpad Experience from it and define which Divisions have access. By default, all Divisions have access to new Experiences.

Use the experienceTypes property in your manifest to define it:

"experienceTypes": [
  {
    "extensionKey": "my-experience",
    "name": "My Experience",
    "description": "Excellent description",
    "resources": {
      "folder": "exp-files"
    }
  }
]

note

After 120 minutes of inactivity, the Experience closes and the user is returned to the Homepage.
