Plugin Status

Overview

Each plugin can be in one of the following states:

  • "Normal" - plugin is working properly;
  • "Warning" - plugin is partially working;
  • "Error" - plugin is not working:
    • application is not installed;
    • cannot connect to application plugin;
    • cannot connect to cloud service;
    • login or authentication required;
    • etc.

By default plugin is in "Normal" state.

Plugin developer should call OnPluginStatusChanged method to change plugin state.
