Mobile Data Prepare (Step 6 of Mobile Configuration)
Overview
This is the final step in the mobile configuration workflow. It allows Admins only to run the preparation process that publishes all mobile inspection settings and data for use in the CAMS Mobile App.
Preparing the mobile data generates the necessary configuration files, links, and structure required for the mobile app to function with the latest hierarchy, field, and widget setup.
Important: Once mobile data is prepared for a module, you can no longer change the following unless all inspection records are completed or deleted:
Main hierarchy (Step 1)
Filter hierarchy (Step 2)
Category for mobile inspection photos and Unique Identifier (Step 3)
For Inspectors
This step is not visible to Inspectors. Your Admin team handles preparing the data and syncing it with your mobile inspection app.
For Admins
When to Prepare Mobile Data
You should run the Prepare Mobile Data process:
-
After completing all six mobile configuration steps
-
Whenever the hierarchy (Primary or Secondary) structure or naming is updated
-
If asset-level data or hierarchy values in the database are added or changed
-
Any time online data changes that need to be reflected on the mobile app
Note: This ensures that both configuration and content (such as assets or hierarchy updates) are synchronised with the mobile app.
How to Prepare

Review all configuration steps (1–5) and confirm your settings are correct.
