Blueprints are powerful. But they are not the answer to every problem. What if I want to create a new application via App Studio without having one (or the desire to create one)? This option seems to be gone. I’m testing this on Infinity '25.1.1.
Hi @MittalKumar - I can confirm that it wasn’t an option. I found the the culprit though: seems like there is a When rule pyShowBuildManually in class PegaAccel-Task-BuildApplication which evaluated to false. Setting it to true made the option show up again.
@mrwolf2 We recommend every application to start with a Blueprint. Thus the option to create an application without a Blueprint has been removed.
Regards,
@SumanKumar frankly, removing the option does not feel like than a recommendation to me. It feels forced.
I was under the impression that they had backed out that change shortly after releasing it. You might try to download the latest version of the import component and see if that fixes the issue.
That said, I have gotten into the habit of initially importing a blueprint to create reuse layers (with no case types) and even an empty application in part because it can generate product rules, I can review and update any of the generated assets and eventually we are hoping it will automate the generation of dev ops pipelines, so you get some additional benefit from importing an empty shell.
