Neptune DXP Marketplace

The Neptune DXP Marketplace replaces the Store within the Cockpit of the Neptune DXP - Open Edition.

Currently, the Neptune DXP Marketplace is accessible in Neptune DXP - Open Edition, Neptune DXP - SAP Edition and in the Neptune DXP Portal. All items found in the Neptune DXP Marketplace can only be downloaded through your Neptune product and not from the Neptune DXP Portal.

marketplace access

The Neptune DXP Marketplace is the place to find and install application building blocks to make the design, assembly, and operation of digital solutions as easy and fast as possible.

The Neptune DXP Marketplace contains, for example, public and private catalogs of solutions and application building blocks:

  • Public catalogs are visible to everyone.

  • Private catalogs are only visible to members of the Neptune DXP Portal account which owns it.

marketplace Types

The Neptune DXP Marketplace items can be installed directly into the DXP runtime.

In the Cockpit, open the Neptune DXP Marketplace, select a Neptune DXP Marketplace item, and click Install. The Neptune DXP Marketplace installs bundled artifacts directly into the Neptune DXP - Open Edition.

For example, application building blocks install a package of artifacts into the Neptune DXP - Open Edition and install an app, class and/or tile into the Neptune DXP - SAP Edition.

Version upgrades of Neptune DXP Marketplace items

Neptune DXP Marketplace items are subject to technical adjustments over time. These technical adjustments include enhancements to underlying artifacts of Neptune DXP Marketplace items. You can install upgrade versions of previously installed items that contain the adjustments. The description of the Neptune DXP Marketplace item displays whether or not the version of the Neptune DXP Marketplace item is the same as the one in your Neptune DXP runtime environment.

If you have previously configured individual artifacts that make up a Neptune DXP Marketplace item, and you install an upgrade version of the Neptune DXP Marketplace item, your configurations for the artifact will be overwritten as a rollback to the default configurations of the upgrade version.

If you want to upgrade the version of a Neptune DXP Marketplace item and you want to preserve your customizations, consider the following options:

  • You can export the artifacts as a copy from each of the tools of the Cockpit that use the artifacts.

  • You can export an entire development package of the artifacts as part of a deployment package in the Deployment Transfer tool before reinstalling the Neptune DXP Marketplace item.

You can reimport preserved artifact configurations in the Deployment Log tool.
