Notes

Add End Process & Stop Extension Linking Action to Palette

A new section is added to the Palette as Extension Actions and have moved Call Extension Point action and have newly added End Process and Stop Extension Linking Action under that.

ExtensionProcessPalette

End Process and Stop Extension Linking Action - This action would be similar to an End Process Action with an additional StopExtensionLinking input and parameter.

Refactor a Call Process/Action as an extension

Now you have the ability to refactor a Call Process/Action as an Extension Process.

ExtensionProcessPalette

When the actions are selected and choose the option to refactor as an Extension Process, the actions are moved to the newly defined process and the process is registered in the Packages.xml.

When Extension Point Wizard is updated, the current process is updated with callExtensionPointAction with the user given extension Id and the extension is registered in the Packages.xml.
