Publishing Apps
Make your apps available to anyone with a link, creating public or private access points for your solutions.
Publishing Benefits:
Direct Access: Users can interact with your app through a dedicated URL
No Installation Required: Works immediately in any browser
Version Control: Update your published app while maintaining the same link
Monetization Ready: Foundation for future paywall and premium features
Publishing Options:
Public Apps: Discoverable and accessible to anyone with the link
Private Apps: Require specific permissions or passwords for access
App Visibility Settings
Choose how people access your published app:
Public Apps:
Anyone with the link can access and use your app
No authentication required
Ideal for marketing, demonstrations, or free tools
Private Apps:
Require user authentication to access
Control who can use your app
Suitable for client portals or internal tools
Unpublishing Apps
You can always unpublish your app if needed:
Open your Genesis app in your workspace
Click the Publish dropdown in the top toolbar
Select "Unpublish"
Confirm the action
Note: Unpublishing immediately removes public access, but the URL becomes inactive. Users who bookmarked the link will lose access.
