Plugin Type Management
Plugin types can be managed and accessed with MWS dynamically, even while running. Operations are provided to upload (add or update) plugin types and to list or show current plugin types. The available fields that are displayed with plugin types are given in 8.4.13 Fields: Plugin Types. For more information on how these fields are set, see 6.2.17.A Plugin Projects and Metadata.

Plugin Type JAR or groovy files should never be manually copied into the MWS_HOME/plugins directory. They must be managed using the methods shown in this section or through the REST API (see 4.17 Plugin Types).
Bundled plugin types are included automatically in MWS releases and can be utilized immediately after startup. See 6.5 Plugin Management for more information on how to utilize these plugin types.

The plugin type documentation is now located in the plugin type management pages. See 6.4.3 Plugin Type Documentation for more information.
