Hi Manish,

The main advantage is you don't need to create an installer package and call the required dlls in order to get the add-on correctly installed and registered into B1. Simply by providing your exe you can install your add-on.

Here you have a guide how to package and deploy lightweight add-ons:

In the document benefits are also explained.

With this feature, you have the following key benefits:

- Automated life cycle management of extensions without user interaction

- Zero operational down time required for extension deployment

- No administrator privileges required for end users to install the extension

Hope it helps,
Trinidad.
