    About this task

    A library can be in the Unavailable state in the following situations:
    • When a library is created for the first time
    • When a library and its components are being created
    • When a newer version of the library is being created
    If a library is unavailable, no component within that library can be used, updated, or exported. However, it does not impact applications that are already using components within this library.

    When the library is ready for use, you can activate it.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > DevOps Config > DevOps Config Workspace.
    2. Click the component libraries icon (Component libraries icon.) in the left navigation to open the Component libraries tab.
    3. In the left pane, select a component library.
    4. Select the Available toggle switch to make the library available so that its shared components can be used in applications.

    Result

    • The library and the shared components in it become available for use.
    • The status of the library is set as Available.
