Why does SAP Fiori Launchpad Site Modules not exist in my WebIDE?

[mrwong05]

Hi I have just installed Hana Express 2.0 to AWS instance.

I am trying to create a fiori launchpad from a template using these instructions: https://help.sap.com/viewer/4505d0bdaf4948449b7f7379d24d0f0d/2.0.01/en-US/69fd5fc904fd4467b85818b501...

yet, when I try to #3 "From the context menu of the project root folder, select New SAP Fiori Launchpad Site Modules", this option doesn't exist on my WebIDE when logged in as XSA_DEV. See screenshot.

What am I missing? is the template not loaded or do I have the wrong user/role

?

Hi,

in the WebIDE go to Tools/Preferences and there to Features. Activate portal-webide-plugin and restart WebIDE.

Now the missing feature is available.

Best regards

Achim

Hi Achim! you are the best! thank you so much. omg, why are these things not enabled by default? How did you know how to do this? did you read documentation or just play around and find it?

ALOHA,
