Private Mendix Platform Administration Guide

1 Introduction

As a user with Administrator access rights, you can perform the business-as-usual administrator tasks such as app management and user management. You can also manage Marketplace-related settings for your company.

2 App Management

On the App Management page, administrators can manage their apps.

The page shows you a summary of your apps.

Click an app tile to see more details about the app.

By clicking More Options () in the app tile, you can quickly perform a number of actions:

• Edit details such as app name and description

• Invite users to work on the app

• View the Git revisions per branch for the app

• Assign the app to a new owner or group

• Archive the app, provided you are the only team member.

  You will be warned of the consequences and asked for confirmation before the app is archived.

• Delete the app, provided you are the only team member.

  You will be warned of the consequences and asked for confirmation before the app is archived.

3 Marketplace

In the Marketplace section, administrators can manage various settings related to the content available on the Private Platform Marketplace. The Private Platform Marketplace is a local version of the Mendix Marketplace, enclosed entirely within the Private Platform. Developers in your organization can also create their own modules, connectors, and sample apps, and share them on the Private Platform Marketplace to make them available to other users.

As the administrator, you can perform the following actions:

• In the Content Management tab, you can view the Marketplace content that your users have already published, as well as any items which are pending approval, or which have been rejected.
• In the Taxonomy Management tab, you can configure the supported Studio Pro versions and sub-categories that your users can select when creating Marketplace content. You can also view and edit the available licenses.
• In the Content Import tab, you can view the contents available in your Private Marketplace. You can also download and import the modules in bulk.

4 Users

In the User Management section, administrators can manage user accounts and user groups.

As the administrator, you can perform the following actions:

• In the User Management tab, you can create and edit accounts for your local users and API users (that is, accounts that are used by an API service to access your Private Mendix Platform). By clicking More Options () by an account, you can quickly perform a number of actions:

  • Edit a user’s name and email
  • Assign or remove user roles
  • Block a user
  • Change a user’s password
  • Configure the language and time zone settings for a user
  • Delete a user account

In the Group Management tab, you can create and edit user groups. These groups typically reflect your organization’s structure. You can also use the Automation Settings option to automatically assign users to groups based on their profile attributes.
