How do I install an add-on?

Add-ons extend i-doit with additional functionality (e.g. API, Documents, Flows, ISMS). There are two ways to install them.

Installation via the Add-on & Subscription Center (recommended)

The easiest way — directly from within i-doit:

1. Navigate to Administration > Add-ons > Add-on & Subscription Center
2. Available add-ons are listed
3. Select the desired add-on and install it with a single click

The Add-on & Subscription Center is available from i-doit version 33 onwards and requires an internet connection on the server.

Installation via the Admin Center (manual)

If no internet connection is available or the Subscription Center is not accessible:

1. Download the add-on as a ZIP file from the customer portal

2. Open the Admin Center (link below the login form or https://<your-i-doit>/admin/)

   

3. Navigate to the "Add-ons" tab

4. Click the "Install/update module" button
5. Select the tenant — individually or "All tenants"
6. Select the ZIP file and click "Upload and install"

The i-doit Admin group automatically receives full permissions for the new add-on after installation. If other users need access to the add-on, permissions must be granted manually via Administration > Permissions.

Updating an add-on

• Via Subscription Center: Select the add-on and click the Update button
• Via Admin Center: Upload a new ZIP file through "Install/update module" (overwrites the previous version)

Uninstalling / deactivating an add-on

• Deactivate: Disables functionality but retains all data. Can be done per tenant.
• Uninstall: Select the checkbox > "Uninstall selected module" — data is permanently deleted, across all tenants!

v38 compatibility

When updating to i-doit v38, many add-ons must be updated to minimum versions (e.g. API >= 2.3, Documents >= 1.10, Flows >= 1.2.0). Check the compatibility matrix before updating.
