    Hi everyone,

    I am new at App Connect (v12) and I if possible I want to ask you if you have any documentation that can give me a boost in learning.

    It can be anything, examples, tutorials, IBM documentation, best practices, etc.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello Filipe,

    You can find the App Connect Enterprise v12 product docs here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0.

    In particular, you might find the following topics helpful:

    There's also an App Connect Enterprise playlist of videos on YouTube that you might find useful. 

    I hope that helps - happy learning!

    Hi @Karen Cameron,

    One thing, I don't understand.

    There are two editors? Web and desktop?

    How is the normal development process?

    Regards.

    Hi Filipe,

    There are 2 editors now. to create different types of flow programs.

    The traditional editor is the ACE Toolkit, which is an Eclipse based development GUI. This offers the capability to create Message Flows, REST APIs etc and do more intensive operations and transformations with more traditional coding skills.

    The other, newer editor, is the web-based Designer, which is more for low to no code operations. I generally think of this as using event driven operations with connectors to get data from 1 system to another, but that could be an oversimplification.

    See the discussion here: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/integration/discussion/app-connect-enterprise-vs-designer

    Hi @Jim Berube,

    Regarding the discussion about the development process.
    As I can see the web interface is simpler to enable business users but normally what could we consider use it or not?

    ex: I can develop a service via toolkit and use it in the web interface. is this a good practice?

    Regards
