This is a guide for how you publish apps to an app portal. This assumes the app portal has already been pre-configured. If you need help setting up the portal from the start, please read this article.
Step 1: make sure the new app is published
In your app, go to the Publish section
Scroll down and make sure it says available on the option to “Make your app available via another Fliplet app (a portal app)”
Step 2: in the portal settings, select the new app
Click on the portal component to open the settings
Scroll down in the settings to where you can see your available apps
Select the new app from the list
Note: only published apps will be listed here, so if you can’t see the app as an option, go back to step 1 and make sure the app is published
Make a note here what the app ID is, as you’ll need it for the next step
Step 3: in the user data source, add the new app ID in a new column and give users access to the new app
In your portal settings click the button to edit data source
In your data source, create a new column and add the app ID like this APP:1234
Note that 1234 needs to be the unique app ID you can see from your list of available apps
Next to each user email mark an x in the new column if a user should have access to the new app
Save data source and portal component settings
Step 4: test it on Fliplet Viewer to make sure you can access & download new app
Make sure to give yourself access to the new app so you can make sure you can access it on Fliplet viewer
You won’t be able to test downloading the app in Fliplet Studio preview, since the portal only works on mobile devices
Step 5: publish the portal to make changes go live
To make your new app available on your live app, publish an update from within Fliplet Studio
When your app has updated, try to download the app and to make sure it’s working
