Export Lumira Extension Instructions

CMaps Analytics Designer employs Lumira export option that will generate a complete Lumira extension. This export option is slightly different than other templates:

• Lumira export is installed directly inside of SAP Lumira
• Lumira export file can NOT be re-imported back into Lumira for changes. Instead you need to save a CMaps Analytics project file (XML)

Step 1: Name your CMaps view on the “Basics” tab. This name is extremely important because it controls the perminent name of the extension.

Step 2: Click on the Save and Export Tab

Step 3: Select Lumira

Step 4: Save your extension to your desktop or shared drive

Step 5: Unzip the file. Inside is the extension file that you will install into Lumira along with contents for your end user to learn how to install and use the extension

NOTE: It is recommended to distribute the exported extension via file share, or cloud-based drive. When emailing extensions, most email security programs could modify the contents or block sending extensions.
