Adding a Page Extension

Page Extensions allow you to inject a piece of JavaScript code into any page rendered through EngageIP’s view engine. The code can interact with the client DOM directly, intercept other executing code or invoke custom code blocks that you have added to the system.

Adding a Page Extension

Here are the steps to add a page extension:

1. Log into EngageIP as an adminstrator

2. Navigate to the Setup page

3. Under the Extensibility heading select Page Extensions

4. On the Page Extension listing, click Add

What the Fields Mean

Here is a sample listing of Page Extensions added to one system:

There are really only two fields here that we care about: Name and Page.

The Name is simply used to help you remember what the script does. It is a good practice to name this script in a way that makes it easy to locate the source file where you maintain your scripts under source control. In this example, a prefix (“Application” or “Ticket”) is used to help sort the page extensions and each entry could represent a separate script file under source control.

The Page is the target of your script. This is the page that the script will be added to, and the code will be available for execution on when that page is rendered.
