pip is the package installer for Python. You can use pip to install packages from the Python Package Index and other indexes.  pip is required when installing MVIS and we have seen many questions on installing pip when it appears that the Python installation on a system did not include pip.The installation of pip for Python is not obvious and can lead to many questions or support cases to address the installation.  Below is a link to a tech note available in the customer portal to assist in installing Pip to get you started in MVIS:RCP Link: Installing Pip for PythonLet us know if there are any questions about the MVIS installation or the Python/Pip installation.------------------------------Andrew ClayTechnical Support Engineer IIRocket Software------------------------------

Within SystemBuilder there is a process we can use to transfer group security restrictions from one group to another, though this process is little known it has been in the product since before version 6.  We get questions on this topic from customers looking for an easy way to transfer group restrictions within SB and SB/XA but find using the SB security API cumbersome or inefficient.The process in SB is called RESTRICT.COPY and it has not been documented, we have created a tech note on the process to demonstrate a quick and simple solution to transferring restrictions from one group to another.RCP Link: Group Restrictions TransferAttached is the content of this tech note, users may find this useful when managing large systems requiring a number of SB security groups.------------------------------Andrew ClayTechnical Support Engineer IIIRocket Software------------------------------

In June 2020, the Rocket MultiValue R&D team released a new version of SB/XA – version 6.5.6. If you're running the current version of SB/XA, I'm interested in your thoughts about the release. If you haven't upgraded, I'd like to learn what's holding you back.Did you know that we offer a Rocket SB+ Guided Upgrade Tool? This Tool automates the necessary steps for a successful upgrade to release 6. Learn more about SB/XA 6.5.6, including new features that provide real benefits to you including security enhancements.------------------------------Hernando BordaRocket Software------------------------------

Attached is a small demonstration of what is possible with SB/XA XAML themes.  Adding a hyperlink to SB/XA Screens that open within the default browser.  This is also a tech note, accessible via the Rocket Community Portal(RCP).RCP Link: SB/XA Hyperlinks In ScreensThis tech note details how to create a hyperlink within an SB/XA screen to open in the systems default browser.  Again this is a small demonstration, but there are many things, both of similar scope and larger changes, that can be accomplished via XAML styling in the SB/XA Rich Client.------------------------------Andrew ClayTechnical Support Engineer IIRocket Software------------------------------

MultiValue Integration Server is approaching the first anniversary of its launch, and the MVIS team continues to host webinars, write blog posts, and other technical content for customers and users. One such webinar following in the launch's wake is a deep dive into the newly released platform, hosted by Julianna Cammarano, Zain Master and Steve Wingfield. In this webinar, "Introducing Rocket MultiValue Integration Server" (55m), viewers are guided on a tour of the platform's capabilities, value, integration points and much more. After watching the introduction, you should be well informed to begin your MVIS journey and deploy its functionality. Whether you are new to MVIS, or an experienced veteran, we're interested in your experience. Share your thoughts, tips, and what you learned from the webinar.------------------------------Charles Dane Rocket Software------------------------------

I remember Connectivity Hub (RACH) was part of Rocket Mobile solution where the apps could be uploaded and shared whatever with general users or with company's internal users. Also it had very powerful features like device identification, so in case a device with a sensitive app was lost or stolen, we could disable the app access on that specific device. Now we have MVIS and more mobile apps can be developed to empower company's users but these apps don't need to be published either in Google Play or Apple Store because they are important only for internal use or specific customers.So this is the idea, turn Connectivity Hub into a company's private Apps Store where apps could be uploaded, managed and shared with company's users or specific customers. For example, a company could have a variate of apps for different areas and users.This is just an idea and it would be good to know other opinions.------------------------------Jaime LunaALCOMTEC EIRL------------------------------

In the current age that demands very quick turn-around times to meet customer requirements, it is essential for every company to revisit all aspects of software development, including requirements gathering, development and deployment. In these times, tools that optimize and simplify software development are increasingly important.Swagger, one of these tools, allows developers to easily create REST services and showcase them to both internal and external stakeholders via public APIs and speed up the pace of collaboration to develop web applications.Watch the short Viewing and exercising Swagger Definition video to see how Swagger, embedded in MVIS, helps you quickly create RESTful APIs for your MultiValue data and business logic. We hope you enjoy this video. Please share any feedback or ideas for new content, and reach out if you need any help.------------------------------Amey RokdeRocket Software------------------------------

I've been looking into Docker with a view to using it with MVIS. The manual is very short on examples, only covering using Azure for storage.I did see the deployment scripts, but these also lack any documentation.Does anyone have examples of MVIS working with docker local storage?------------------------------Jonathan EvansMBS------------------------------

When I joined Rocket Software in 2017 as the MultiValue Tools Senior Product Manager, I had no idea that I would have the chance to collaborate with some our most innovative customers, software developers and the marketing team within Rocket Software, to bring to market a truly new and revolutionary gateway to the MV Application Platform (UniVerse, UniData) – the MultiValue Integration Server (MVIS).  MVIS easily extends core business logic currently hidden within your application, enabling you to build and interface with modern software paradigms. The journey to develop the MultiValue Integration Server was initiated from a desire to modernize our product offerings and to attract new talent into MV. We acted by building a team of software engineers with a natural drive to stay current with constantly evolving software paradigms and tools. We also recruited some of our most forward-thinking and committed customers who wanted to move to the cloud, participate in the API economy, and ma

I’m new to System Builder, and getting familiar with how it works. Does anyone have a cheat sheet for System Builder and how to get started like setting up screen?

Does anyone have any documentation on System Builder, and how to get started in building some screens?
