Install and run
Install
Section titled “Install”Offered apps from your libraries appear in the app library as Custom · owner/repo. Opening one shows its tools and the address it reaches. Install asks only what the file asks:
- Its settings, including the app’s address.
- Run on: one of your tunnels that runs custom apps.
- Who signs in: the workspace once, or each person.
- The approval of exactly what will run.
The approval
Section titled “The approval”Nothing runs until an admin approves it. The approval covers one exact version: the code, the address, the settings, the tunnel and every tool.
A new version, a new setting, a new address or another tunnel needs a new approval. The approved version keeps running until then. When you approve an update, the console shows what changes. Changing the address or the tunnel clears the app’s sign-ins.
States
Section titled “States”| State | |
|---|---|
| Awaiting approval | Installed, but nothing approved yet. |
| Running | The approved version runs on its tunnel. |
| Update pending | A newer version or setting waits for approval. The approved one keeps running. |
| Paused | An admin paused it. |
| Stopped | Custom apps are off on its tunnel. |
Custom apps on a tunnel
Section titled “Custom apps on a tunnel”Every tunnel runs custom apps by default. An admin can turn them off per tunnel in the tunnel’s settings. Their approvals stay for when you turn it back on.
A tunnel that does not offer Run on may be an older version: update it.
Not yet
Section titled “Not yet”- Socket tools (IMAP and SMTP) do not run in the tunnel yet.
- Give custom apps a tunnel of their own if you want them apart from your other apps.
