Registering the App

Registration is the first step in integrating your app into the Trados platform.

To register a new app, you need to:

  1. After you log in, navigate to the RWS AppStore from the user icon menu.

AccessRWSAppStore

  1. Go to My Apps tab, select New App and provide the following details:
    • the Development Name and Development Description, which will only be visible to the developer tenant (do not confuse them with the name and the description of the app descriptor)
    • the App Descriptor URL is the app's descriptor address. This must be a secure URL.
    • the Development App checkbox represents whether your app is intended for development and testing purposes. Development apps cannot be published.
  2. After filling in these fields, finish the registration by clicking the Register button.

Common issues that may occur during registration include:

Issue Fix suggestion
Invalid Descriptor URL Make sure the provided URL is formed correctly and it points to your descriptor endpoint.
Incorrect BaseUrl If you are using one of our blueprints, check the blueprint guides (.NET or Java) on how to set up the BaseUrl field.
Already registered This would normally occur if you already registered your app. If so, you can unregister the old version and perform the registration once again.
Descriptor does not comply with the contract Make sure the required fields are returned and the allowed values correspond to the ones from the contract.
