FAQ

Can the same application be opened in multiple tabs?

Yes.

Where will users access the app?

By default you will get a domain name such as your-app.onjourneyapps.com.

For custom domain names:

1. Configure the DNS record for the domain as CNAME web-container-router.journeyapps.com.

2. Contact JourneyApps Support to configure the web container with the custom domain.

A certificate will be provisioned automatically for the domain using Let's Encrypt.

Getting Access

Contact JourneyApps Support to request web access for an app. If you'd like to specify the web container's favicon, please include a 64x64 px .png file of the icon.

Custom Web Container Favicon

Version compatibility

Support for customizing the favicon of the Web container was added in version 4.86.1 of the JourneyApps Runtime and version 22.9.4 of the JourneyApps Container.

By default, the JourneyApps logo is displayed as the web container favicon:

This icon can be customized, by providing a 64x64 px png file of the icon when requesting a Web Container.

Once a user enrolls in an app in this container, the JourneyApps Runtime dictates which favicon is being displayed:

For apps using JourneyApps Runtime version 4.86.1 (or greater), the Runtime will load the app-level favicon as follows:

1. If no custom container- or app-level favicon is specified, the standard JourneyApps logo will be displayed as per the screenshots above.

2. If only a container favicon is specified, that favicon will be displayed.
3. If an app-level favicon is specified (see the section below), that icon will be displayed.

All apps running with a Runtime version lower than 4.86.1 will display the standard JourneyApps logo as the favicon.

Configure app-level favicon

You can specify an app-level favicon (and thereby override the container-level favicon) using OXIDE.

Step 1: Upload the icon into OXIDE’s assets for your app, example:

Step 2: Open up the config.json file in OXIDE, and add a line the references the icon as follows:

config.json

    ...
    "runtime_version": "4.86.1",
    "app_icon": "icons/check_one_icon.png",
    ...

Step 3: Deploy!
