Deploy the app

Deploy the app based on your portal's authentication.

• If your portal is configured with OAuth2 or SAML authentication, do the following to deploy the app on your web server:
  1. Unzip the downloaded app.
  2. Add a proxy to your app. Refer to Use proxy for details.
  3. Add and register the app. Refer to Add apps and Register your app.
  4. Copy and paste the app ID to the appId property in the app config file. Save the file.
  5. Deploy the app on your web server.
• If your portal is configured with IWA, PKI, or LDAP authentication, do the following to deploy the app on your web server:
  1. Unzip the downloaded app.
  2. Add a proxy to your app. Refer to Use proxy for details.
  3. Change the URL of ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

     Caution:

     When you access the app, you may be asked to sign in many times. This is because JavaScript files hosted by your portal must be authenticated. As a result, you should host ArcGIS API for JavaScript outside the portal and change the apiUrl variable to it. This is specific to web-tier authentication.

Customize the app

Do the following to customize the app.

• Add custom widgets:
  1. Put a custom widget in the widgets folder.
  2. Add the widget to the app’s config.json file.

     The example below uses the Demo widget. Add it to the config.json file.

     {
           "uri": "widgets/Demo/Widget"
         },
