Adding custom integrations to the Publication Overview of Studio

Info: The described step can only be performed on the on-premise version of Studio, not on the cloud version.

Custom integrations can be added to the Publication Overview to make functionality such as the following possible:

• Printing the full Publication Overview to PDF
• Download all layouts as a PDF

The integrations appear in the form of actions in the menu located at the top right of the Publication Overview (the triple dot button). Creating sub-menus is also supported.

Actions and sub-actions can have an icon and/or a label and can be separated by a line.

Creating customizations

To help you create your own customizations, an SDK and sample files are available in the following location:

Content Station folder > sdk

The following files are relevant to creating customizations:

• po-ui-sdk.md. The SDK describing the available options that can be implemented in the Publication Overview.

• samples. Folder containing some example plug-ins. See the SDK for more information.

The process

Customizations are added as a plug-in. The process of creating and adding them is as follows:

Step 1. Create a javascript file by following the instructions in the SDK and/or by basing it on the sample file.

Step 2. Place the file in the following folder (optionally in a subfolder of this folder):

Content Station folder > sdk

Step 3. Enable the plug-in in Studio by opening the contentstation > config.js file and adding a reference to the plug-in in the plugins section. For details about how to configure this, see the plugins.md file in the sdk folder.

Step 4. Save the file.

Step 5. Log in to Studio — or refresh the page when you are already logged in — and test the working of your customization.
