What Are Cloud Apps?

Cloud Apps is an open framework that enables developers to write apps that run inside Ex Libris higher education products such as Alma, Primo VE back-office, Esploro, Leganto and Rapido. It adds new features beyond core Ex Libris functionality, which can integrate with other systems, or can provide shortcuts and efficiencies for institution-specific workflows. Once enabled by an institution, Cloud Apps can be searched and installed by end users. Cloud Apps can respond to the context of the user's session, offering additional functionality depending on the current page.

Cloud Apps are offered by Ex Libris as an extension to features native to Ex Libris products. Cloud Apps may be developed by Ex Libris or by customers and are made available through the Cloud App Center accessible through Alma. Cloud App access must first be enabled for your institution in order to have access to the Center. Once access has been enabled, individual users may install Cloud Apps available to them as desired.
