Let me know if this helps.

Hi james,
The app doesn’t available on app store. It is on github.

Well noted @Panchal;
You can try following instructions from Installing DHIS2 Apps and uploading the zip file into the App Manager
dhis2-program-data-import-master.zip (213.3 KB)

Best,

Dear @jomutsani,

Do you have screenshot of uploading flow. The reason is that, I have selected dhis2-program-data-import-master.zip; however, it didn’t work.

Hi, It needs to be compiled. After compiling there will be manifest file.

Hi Parveen,

this indicates that the manifest.webapp file is missing or misplaced. The manifest file should be placed in the root of the archive (Zip file).

A common error is to create the Zip archive off an outer directory. You should create the Zip archive so that the root directory of the app (the one containing the manifest file) is the root of the archive.

Example: Have a folder structure similar to this:

/js
/img
/docs
/manifest.webapp

Create the Zip archive with this level as the archive root.

Docs here: Home - DHIS2 Documentation
