Enable microservices for the end user

Microservices allow actions (queries or corrections) to be performed on devices, giving the end-user the ability to run them on-demand.

How to enable a microservice for the end-user

1. Access the Microservices -> Enabled menu within the Flexxible Portal (microservices can be organized either in blocks or lists).

2. Select the microservice you want to enable by clicking on its name (if organized in blocks) or on the See details link (if organized in lists). Next, the microservice details will appear (in the example, “Clean Disk”).

3. Select the Targets tab, which shows the execution permissions and recipients of this microservice.

4. Click on the Edit button in the bottom right corner, within the User Execution section. A modal window with the configuration option will appear.

5. In the panel, enable the execution of the microservice by the end user and select one or more Workspace groups where this option will be valid. Once selected, click Save.
6. In the next few minutes, the new microservice will appear as a new operating system option within the folder Flexxible in the start menu.

Rename the microservices folder

1. Go to Portal -> Settings -> Organization.
2. In the left side menu, select Microservice settings -> Edit microservice settings.
3. Rename the folder.
4. Click on Save.

Considerations

• The chosen name must be between 3 and 50 characters, and can only contain letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.

• If the device has Windows 11 as the operating system and only one microservice is enabled for an end user, the Flexxible folder will not appear; instead, only the microservice icon will be visible in the start menu.
