Hey,

seems like the documentation for specifying a namespace have disappeared, I will add it back in when I get a chance!

In the mean time, it should be as simple as:

“activities”: {
	“dhis”: {
		“namespace”: “my_name_space”
	}
}



I also see that there are some other discrepancies with the documentation regarding the namespaces, which I will fix:

 - The name of the namespace reserved by an app does not need to be similar to the app it self.
	This way, different apps can share the same namespace, as long as the user has the correct access to the apps.
- A namespace can only be reserved once
	If you are trying to share a namespace between multiple apps, only one of them can reserve it in the manifest, and users of the different apps all need to be able to use the app with the reservation.

In the manifest file, I have set activities.dhis.namespace property and in the tomcat logs I do see that the namespace and its value is being read. However http://localhost:8181/dhis/api/dataStore <http://localhost:8181/dhis/api/dataStore> is still empty i.e [ ]. Has anyone come across this issue? I am using DHIS 2.22 build 22027.
