Public WebApp setup

Hello,

I am following the documentation in order to make a webapp Public without any need of authentication.

I have two questions:

  1. After going to settings and use the PROJECTKEY, which extension should I use from these two : "webappid" or "webAppId" ?
  2. When the project key has been added, documentation says to use the below URL:
    http(s)://DSS_BASE_URL/public-webapps/PROJECT_KEY/WEBAPP_ID
     

I am not able to locate "public-webapps" folder inside the DSS.

Additionally, I have the DSS_BASE_URL of my logged on system but then I am not able to put the correct URL on the browser. Can you please let me know with an example what to use for "PROJECT_KEY" and "WEBAPP_ID" of the URL that documentation recommends ?

Thanks,

Panos

Hi,

The WebAppId can be replaced with the actual ID of the webapp. If you open the webapp from the project you wish to make public the information you are looking for will be in the URL you see in the browser :

So in my example, I would need to add WEB_APP_UPLOAD.ciRgI9H in the Settings - Public Webapps

2. Once added I can access the Webapp via the same URL I use for DSS including port e.g

http://localhost:11200/public-webapps/WEB_APP_UPLOAD/ciRgI9H

You also have the option to add a vanity URL as suggested in the doc if you wish.

 

Let me know if you have any further issues,

Hello @AlexT 

I couldn't get vanity URL to work with the below setting though I can access the webapp as a public webapp.

Can you help?

Hello @Snoopy , 

I haven't define any Vanity URLs in my case. 
Do you need to define it ?

Thanks

Thanks for getting back @tamvap and @AlexT . I solved it with help of just stopping the backend then restarting ๐Ÿ™‚

Hello !

I'm trying to public a webapps, but i'm on a isolated network.

After i added the PROJECTID.webappid in the Login and Security section and go at my own url (http://192.168.20.10:10000/public-webapps/ProjectID/webappID) i just have an empty page with this : "Page not found [object Object] "

I don't see why it don't work.

Thanks.
