Apply Extensions To a Vault

Custom user interface extensions can be applied to a vault's configuration. These extensions may act upon custom properties used by the vault or provide configuration options. Any property pages included in the extension will appear in Configurator as property pages of the Vault Settings branch of the configuration tree.

Note:

The extensions that you want to apply to a folder type must already be registered in the vault configuration. For more information on registering extensions, see Register Custom Interface Extensions.
