Overview
Learn how to activate an app in the Integration Catalog by selecting the app, configuring instances and data scopes, and completing the activation process.
You can integrate and activate a pxGrid Cloud app using the Integration Catalog (). The data scopes selected during the activation of an app are also activated in the configured policy. Refer to Configure a Cisco pxGrid Cloud policy for more information on configuring a policy.
To view and enable new scopes available for an app, disconnect the app after deactivation. When you reactivate the app, all the new scopes are displayed. You cannot edit the chosen data scopes after app activation. To make necessary changes, deactivate the app, make the required changes, and then reactivate the app.
When integrating an app using the Integration Catalog, you may see the option to integrate an application using an existing instance or a new instance. This option of selecting an existing instance or a new instance is only applicable for multi-instance applications. In multi-instance apps, you can connect multiple Cisco ISE deployments (within a region) to an existing instance or you can create a new instance for app integration. Single-instance apps always use the same instance.
