  1. App structure

Groups

You can use groups to divide your app modules to logical blocks and even for changing the order of modules in the GUI.

Default Grouping

When you're creating a new app, new modules are automatically added to the Other group. If you've never used this feature on your app before, all of your modules will be placed in this group.

When there's only a single, Other group, the modules will be grouped "traditionally", according to their type.

Changing the Groups and Order

By changing the Groups file, you can set up as many groups as you want and group the modules into logical blocks. Once you create a new group and put a single module there, the grouping will take effect instead of the default Action/Search/Trigger.

The configuration of the groups will show up in the GUI.

Notice that modules are displayed in the same order as they are specified in the Groups section.

One module can belong to one or more groups, but it has to belong to at least one. You won't be allowed to save the group's configuration otherwise.
