Creating Resources

LifeOmic Platform users can use the Create Resource feature to place different resources in the Marketplace. There are many resource types available for you to publish. For example, you can add a Program Template to publish a previously created program to the Marketplace. You can also use the App Tile to create your own apps, linking to external sites with your own curated content. Once you have followed the steps to place these resources in the Marketplace, they can be integrated with other LifeOmic products, such as the Patient Mobile App.

The resources you create can be added for consumption by those in your organization or by other LifeOmic customers. You can configure the availability, when you create the resource.

Digital Binder App Example

You can create an app linking to an external website with custom content. An example use case could be a "digital binder" with information for subjects to refer to as they recover from a medical procedure. Rather than handing them a physical binder, you can create an app in the Marketplace that connects to the binder content in digital form.

Follow the procedure above to create a resource and select App Tile as your resource type. In the Source section of the setup wizard, enter the URL of your privately hosted content. The content of the app, or digital binder, is the website of the URL that you insert here. Once you complete the setup and publish your resource, users can integrate the app through the Patient Mobile App, and the subjects can access the information using their mobile device.
