Prerequisites to Upload a Plug-In

The plug-in must be in a specific format to be uploaded. If not, you cannot upload it, you must host it elsewhere.

The plug-in files must meet these requirements:

• You must upload a ZIP archive of the plug-in files.

• You can upload only the files of following types:

  • .html

  • .css

  • .js

  • .jpg

  • .jpeg

  • .png

  • .gif

  • .svg

  • appcache

• You can organize files in sub-directories, but you must have the "index.html" file in the root folder.

• Each file can be a maximum of 1 MB and the total size of the compressed archive must be less than 500 KB.

• You can have a maximum of 10 files or directories in the archive.

Note: The plug-in files uploaded in Oracle Field Service are available by unique URLs on the Internet. The URLs are generated automatically and contain a long string. There is no authentication to access these files, so anyone who has the direct link to the file can download the file. Therefore, don't store any sensitive information such as passwords or login names in the plug-in archive. If you don't want your code to be available without authentication, we recommend that you don't use the hosted plug-in functionality. Be aware that the communication between the plug-in and Oracle Field Service starts only when a user successfully logs in to Oracle Field Service.
