This functionality was modified in an update. For more information, see Configure methods (modified in an update).
Methods are used to create custom functionality, which can be exposed to your users as actions and commands. The method functionality created can be displayed as a function tile in a feature set, as an action command on the Actions menu, or as an icon on the shortcut ribbon.
The behavior of each method you create or update is driven by the client API that you select as you configure the method. Each client API represents a specific piece of code that can be invoked to perform the required functionality, such as attaching an object a workflow. The method arguments defined on the API are dynamic and set on a tab along with some additional properties.
You create and update methods using the delivered Create Method and Update Method functionality, which displays the various configuration items and properties that you configure to set up a new method. The properties are defined by the client API selected.
