# Create custom module

> Creates a custom module. A matching view permission (`view/`) is created at the same time and added to your own role, so you see the new menu right away; give it to other roles to share the module.
`url` must be a valid URL. It may contain `{SHORT_TOKEN}`, which is replaced with a short-lived token for the signed-in user when the module opens.
Rules:
- `name`: required, at most 50 characters, letters, numbers, spaces and `-` only, unique in your organization. It cannot be changed later.
- `type`: `WEB`, `MOBILE` or `ADDONS`.
- `pluginId`: required when `type` is `ADDONS`; the add-on must be global or your own, used once per organization, with a URL no other module uses.
- `target`: `_blank` (new tab, default) or `_self`.
Requires permission `add/customModule`.

      User data includes information contained within a user account, such as
      details that define a user's hub access and role within the system. Hub
      access determines the locations or areas of the application a user can
      access or the specific actions they can perform. User attributes consist
      of the user ID, name, email, and status.


      The app provides five predefined user roles, and you can create custom
      roles based on your organization's needs. The predefined roles are
      **Owner, Admin, Planner, and Field user**. A user can only hold one role
      at a time but can be granted access to multiple hubs.

      This API allows you to manage teams. It serves as a tool to effectively
      manage and restrict user task assignments within your organization.

  - name: Role
    description: >-
      This API enables you to retrieve a list of predefined roles and any custom
      roles associated with your account. By making a GET request to this API,
      you can obtain information about the available roles within the system.
      The predefined roles refer to a set of role types that are already defined
      by the system. In this particular case, the predefined roles include
      Finance, Owner, Planner, Admin, and Field User. Additionally, the API may
      also return any custom roles that have been created within your account.

  - name: Hub
    description: >-
      In our system, a Hub is a fundamental entity within an organization,
      serving as the central point for managing various operational components.
      It acts as the parent structure for a wide range of resources and
      functionalities, including tasks, visits, users, vehicles, routing
      results, routing configurations, and data sources.


      **To see the details of hub object, please follow [this
      link](#tag/hub_model)**


      ## Conceptual Understanding of Hubs


      - **User Perspective:** For users, a Hub represents their headquarters or
      primary working area. It is where they carry out their daily activities
      and manage their tasks effectively. Each user interacts with the Hub to
      access resources and perform operations specific to their roles.


      - **Task Perspective:** From the perspective of task management, the Hub
      signifies the working area for tasks. It is the location where tasks are
      initiated, monitored, and completed. The Hub facilitates organization and
      efficiency in task execution.


      - **Routing Perspective:** In the context of routing and logistics, a Hub
      serves as a critical location for vehicles. It is where vehicles begin
      their routes, return after completing their journeys, and may make
      strategic stops along the way. The routing module relies on the Hub to
      optimize vehicle assignments and manage routes effectively.

    description: >-
      The Plugin API allows developers to create and manage custom add-ons

      resources and custom icons, allowing organizations to extend platform
      capabilities with custom features and integrations.
