Ellucian Mobile Overview
Ellucian Mobile, powered by Ellucian Ethos, provides faculty, prospects, students, staff, and other constituents with access to key campus information and services from their mobile devices. This section provides an overview of Ellucian Mobile.
Before You Begin
This section describes some advance preparations that you can make to help your Ellucian Mobile setup process to go as smoothly as possible.
Install Supporting Software
Before you can install the Ellucian Mobile components, there are several prerequisite software components that must be installed.

Install Ellucian Mobile Software
Install the Ellucian Mobile WAR file and perform basic configuration steps.
Set up the Mobile Cloud Configuration System
Set up the Ellucian Mobile Cloud Configuration System. Description of the process for signing from the Ellucian Hub, how to create and enter the configuration settings, and how to specify the SIS credentials.
Manage Users and User Permissions for the Mobile Cloud Configuration System
You can give selected people access to modify specific elements of your mobile configurations, such as user management, configuration management, branding, or sending push notifications.
Customize the Appearance of Ellucian GO
Set up the home screen, select background and text colors, and set up the About screen.
Set Up Location-Aware Features
Set up Ellucian Mobile features that are location-aware; that is, based on proximity to a beacon.
Set Up Application Modules

Manage Configurations
In addition to the ability to add a new configuration manually, you can create a new configuration by copying an existing one, export configuration information, import configuration information, and migrate a configuration to a different database.
Set up multiple Mobile Integration Server Web Service Apps
If you want to have multiple active configurations at the same time, you need to set up multiple Mobile Integration Server web service apps.
Set up Load Balancing and Redundancy
Multiple Mobile Integration Servers can be set up for a single configuration. This can be done to scale the solution to support more mobile users, or for redundancy. Deployment of multiple Mobile Servers requires a shared data storage using either a Microsoft SQL Server or an Oracle database.

Users can view push notifications on their Android Wear and Apple Watch devices. Users with Apple Watches can also view ILP assignments and maps.
Debugging

View your analytics data

Usage data for your mobile app is displayed in Google Analytics. See the Google Analytics online help for information about viewing and interpreting usage data.

You can use the custom dimensions that you created in Google Analytics to get screen view data for specific modules and configurations. For example, if you have three Web Apps modules, Google Analytics will by default show the combined screen views for all three instances of the module. You can specify the Module Name custom dimension to view separate screen view statistics for each instance of the Web App module. Similarly, if you have multiple published configurations, you can specify the Configuration Name dimension to view and compare screen views from different configurations.

To use the custom dimensions, go to Behavior > Screens and then scroll down to the table that shows the screen views. Click Secondary dimension > Custom Dimensions and then select either Module Name or Configuration Name as desired. To parse the data out by Configuration Name and Module Name at the same time, use the Pivot table view — select one of the dimensions as the secondary dimension, and then pivot by the other dimension.
