18.2. Extension Types and Usage
How you use an extension in your application depends on the type of extension.
| Type | Usage |
|---|---|
| Camel DataFormat | Once a data format is packaged as a module and added as an extension to the SwitchYard subsystem, no further configuration is required in your application. You can refer to the data format directly in your route as if it was packaged directly within your application. |
| Camel Gateway Components | If the extension is to be used as a gateway binding for services or references, then use the Camel URI binding in your application to configure the endpoint details. |
