The Service Qualification app requires the Service Feasibility widget, which is used to find a route (based on either shortest distance or max business potential) and save the results to a CSV file. To deploy this widget you will need to install and deploy the widget using the Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition).
Service Feasibility widget
Before configuring the app, you will need to add the Service Feasibility widget to your Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition). To deploy the widget, complete the following steps:
- In Windows Explorer, browse to the download's Applications folder.
- Deploy the Service Feasibility widget.
- Start Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition). You will now be able to configure an application using the Service Feasibility widget.
