10 == 1. Prerequisites ==
11 * Basic knowledge of the eMagiz platform
12 * Access to a Mendix application
13 * Access to the Deploy phase of your eMagiz project

15 == 2. Key concepts ==
16 This microlearning centers around learning what an eMagiz Mendix Connector is
17 With eMagiz Mendix Connector we mean: A Mendix module developed and maintained by eMagiz that simplifies connect a Mendix application to an eMagiz project for data traffic between both systems.
18
19 Key aspects of the eMagiz Mendix Connector:
20
21 * The goal of the module is to simplify the connection between Mendix and eMagiz and therefore enhance the speed of development and reduce the risks of problems
22 * The Mendix module is developed and maintained by eMagiz
23 * As of Mendix 8 the inner workings of the module have changed
24 * No manual actions in Mendix via a Mendix screen are necessary to control the eMagiz parts (as of version 4.2.0)

30 The eMagiz Mendix Connector is a Mendix module that is developed and maintained by eMagiz that simplifies connecting a Mendix application to an eMagiz project for data traffic between both systems.

32 Key aspects of the eMagiz Mendix Connector:
33
34 * The goal of the module is to simplify the connection between Mendix and eMagiz and therefore enhance the speed of development and reduce the risks of problems
35 * The Mendix module is developed and maintained by eMagiz
36 * As of Mendix 8 the inner workings of the module have changed
37 * No manual actions in Mendix via a Mendix screen are necessary to control the eMagiz parts (as of version 4.2.0)
38
39 The eMagiz Mendix Connector makes use of Java Actions (Mendix 8 and up) or a web service layer (Mendix 7 and down) to connect Mendix to eMagiz and vice versa. We have changed the connection method to create a process that is better maintainable and easier to realize.

41 In the remainder of the microlearnings within this module, we will learn how you can install, configure and update your eMagiz Mendix Connector. So stay tuned.
