Personalization allows you to configure application parameter input values to be filled in from adapters that extract values from other sources, for example, values that have been stored in the database. When you configure an application input field to use a personalization adapter, the adapter is invoked at runtime to provide values for pre-configured key fields. The input files of applications that belong to different users can receive input values based on each user.
To use personalization adapters, you must first create new key values for the adapter you want to use, and then create an application that provides input values using that key. This section shows how to create a personalization key. In this case, the personalization key “region” will enable the user to select a specific region—Western or Central—for which to display data.
Creating the personalization key
From Mobile Web Studio, select Personalization in the left pane, select “database table” in the Personalize Manager pane, and click the New button.
In Create New Key, create a new key:
In Name, enter region.
Accept the defaults for all other options.
Click OK to save.
Click OK in the “Save Personalized Key successful” window. The New personalization key appears in the Key Name detail pane.
