Lesson 1: Create a New App Builder App from Campaign Standard Template
To initialize an App Builder app, let's use the init command from the CLI:
Copied to your clipboardaio app init customers-dashboard
Select the org, project, and workspace for your app, and then specify what you want your app to include: serverless actions, web UI assets, CI/CD pipeline, events. In this lab, we keep all except events.
The next question asks you to select the sample actions to be created as part of the initial app. Since customer profiles are pulled from Campaign Standard, we are going to select Adobe Campaign Standard for this question by pressing <Space> to select / de-select, and <Enter> to confirm the choice.
Then you will be asked to specify the names of the sample action. Let's name it get-profiles.
From the command line, a NodeJS project is created including the Adobe I/O Runtime actions, configuration files, tests etc. You could explore your project in VS Code, either by opening VSCode -> Open... -> select app folder, or typing this command:
Copied to your clipboardcode customers-dashboard
Upon app initialization, some of the mandatory environment variables are automatically defined in the .env file, specifically AIO_runtime_namespace, AIO_runtime_auth, and SERVICE_API_KEY. If they are not set, you can download the Runtime credentials and obtain the API key from I/O Console:
Finally, for Campaign Standard integration, you need to set the required variable for CAMPAIGN_STANDARD_TENANT. It is usually the subdomain of your Campaign Standard instance. Otherwise, please consult with your Campaign TechOps team for the correct value.
All set environment variables should be then uncommented:
