URL Link to Published Project

Description

When you publish a logicnets project you can provide two pieces of information:

1. published package name (this defaults to the Designer project name, with spaces and other special characters removed
2. the startcode (default is blank)

If a previously published project exists with either of these, you will be prompted to skip or overwrite the published project. Select overwrite to continue with publishing, and the package and URL will be updated.

Accessing the URL

After publishing If you want to provide the URL to the published application to someone go to the package overview page, do the following:

1. Right-click your mouse on the "arrow" icon next to "Run the application in a new window".
2. Select "copy link address" from the context menu to load the URL into your computer's clipboard.
3. Then paste that link in a document, email, or other location.

Understanding the URL

Typically the link will look something like this:

https://yourinstance.logicnets.net/yourcompany/logicnets.lns?verb=start&code=1234567890ABCDEF

If during the publish step you enter a startcode, that will replace the unique identifer, as follows.

https://yourinstance.logicnets.net/yourcompany/logicnets.lns?verb=start&code=YOURSTARTCODE

You can enter the same (or different) startcodes each time you publish. Keeping the same name of the published package will overwrite any prior package/startcode.

You can permanently associate a startcode with a project in the Project Settings.

Friendly URLs

LogicNets hosted installations benefit from some URL Rewrite configuration, so infact you can often use (and bookmark) a short URL as follows:

https://yourinstance.logicnets.net/yourcompany/1234567890ABCDEF

https://yourinstance.logicnets.net/yourcompany/YOURSTARTCODE
