Dynamically Registering Images
This topic provides an overview of registering images for dynamic display functionality in the Mobile Application Platform .
You can register dynamic images defined as primitive elements to ensure that they are pushed to the integration gateway upon file synchronization.
Use the following PeopleCode to get the proper image URL to add to the designated dynamic image primitive element:
&string = %IntBroker. GetImageURL(string <IMAGE NAME>)
To dynamically register images for use in the Mobile Application Platform, they must already exist in the database.
Use the Image Upload page or PeopleSoft Application Designer to add images to the database.
Use the MAP Dynamic Image Registration page (IB_DOCLOIMGREG) to add images for dynamic registration.
