database

A database is a table-based data storage system. AgilePoint uses its own databases, and it can integrate with external databases.

Note: A database is not required to store application data in AgilePoint NX. You can use Data Entities as an alternative.

How AgilePoint NX Uses Databases

AgilePoint NX integrates in these ways with databases:

Third-Party Database Integration Types

AgilePoint NX integrates with these databases in various ways. Some database types can be used as back end data storage for AgilePoint NX, while others can be used through process activities or lookups.

AgilePoint Databases

Workflow Database

An AgilePoint server-side application that stores data you want to track and report in AgilePoint apps.

After your installation is complete, if you want to use advanced mode, create a table that is named based on the app, and create the table columns based on the fields from the form. The Primary Key should be the process instance ID (type varchar 50).
