Plugins in wbutil module

The wbutil module contains several plugins.

The following topics describe plugins that are included in the wbutil module.

Category Browser (wbutil-CategoryBrowser)
This view is the default view of the station’s CategoryService, and typically where you spend most of your time assigning categories to components after initially creating the categories.
HTML5- Category Browser
In Niagara 4.14 and later, there is added browser support for Category Browser. The HTML 5 version of this view is a web-browser-based implementation and it provides the same functions as the Workbench view.
Category Manager (wbutil-CategoryManager)
This view of the CategoryService allows you to create, enable and delete the groups that the security model uses to control access to the objects in a station. Once you create categories, you use the Category Browser view to centrally assign system objects to categories. Or, at the individual component level, you use a component’s Category Sheet view to assign the component to one or more categories.

This view assigns a component to one or more categories (or configures it to inherit categories from its parent. Every component has a Category Sheet view.
