Prerequisites

Examples in the AgilePoint NX Product Documentation

AgilePoint NX Product Documentation provides basic examples for common use cases, general procedures, and functionality that is native to AgilePoint NX. Other resources from AgilePoint or third-party vendors may provide more specific examples to meet your needs.

  • Common Use Case Examples for AgilePoint NX Portal

    Most examples that are provided in the Product Documentation for AgilePoint NX Portal are related to the most common types of use cases.

    • Examples - Step-by-step walkthroughs for the most common types of use cases in AgilePoint NX.

      New examples are added to this section each time the Product Documentation is updated.

    • Field input values - Whenever feasible, the Product Documentation provides example input values for fields in the AgilePoint NX Portal UI. However, not every field definition provides an example. Sometimes, examples are simply missing, and in these cases, they are added when identified.

      However, there are many cases where examples are intentionally omitted. These include:

      • Fields are too general to provide useful sample values. Examples include Name and Description fields, which are simply open-ended text labels.
      • Fields where the input values are variables. Variable names depend on your data model, and they are added through drag-and-drop. Example values are usually not useful for these fields.
      • Field values for third-party integrations. For more information, refer to Documentation for Third-Party Integrations in this list.
  • Basic Code Examples

    For examples related to writing software code to extend or integrate with AgilePoint NX, refer to these resources:
