code language-xml

code language-xml
`<!-- Workfront Tools --> <embedded> <groupId>digital.hoodoo</groupId> <artifactId>workfront-tools.ui.apps</artifactId> <type>zip</type> <target>/apps/<path-to-project-install-folder>/install</target> </embedded>`

<!-- Workfront Tools -->
<embedded>
   <groupId>digital.hoodoo</groupId>
   <artifactId>workfront-tools.ui.apps</artifactId>
   <type>zip</type>
   <target>/apps/<path-to-project-install-folder>/install</target>
</embedded>

The target of the embedded section is set to /apps/<path-to-project-install-folder>/install. This JCR path /apps/<path-to-project-install-folder> must be included in the filter rules in the all/src/main/content/META-INF/vault/filter.xml file. The filter rules for the repository are usually derived from the program name. Use the name of the folder as the target in the existing rules.

Remove the dependencies on Hoodoo distribution points, if any.
Push the changes to the repository.
Run the pipeline to deploy the changes to Cloud Manager.
