 Is this still true for Base Vault (Basic Vault), found in the Help files?

 

"There are various ways to customize Vault Explorer through the API.  You can...
  • Add custom commands.
  • Add custom tabs.
  • Hide existing commands.
  • Subscribe to pre and post events when any Vault Explorer commands are executed.

Availability

This feature is not available in base Vault.  Vault Workgroup, Vault Collaboration or Vault Professional is required."

Hi Authur,

 

No, it's not possible to create an extension for the Vault Basic product. The Vault SDK Help mentions the following:

 

There are various ways to customize Vault Explorer through the API. You can...

Add custom commands.
Add custom tabs.
Hide existing commands.
Subscribe to pre and post events when any Vault Explorer commands are executed.

 

Availability
This feature is not available in base Vault. Vault Workgroup, Vault Collaboration or Vault Professional is required.

 

Hope this helps.
