App Permissions

With Appetize's app permissions, users can manage who has access to their app, can debug apps or view network traffic logs and more.

Who can run your app

When you upload an app to Appetize, you receive a link to view your app. This link includes the app's assigned publicKey, and looks like this:
https://appetize.io/app/:publicKey
This publicKey is an unguessable cryptographically generated 128-bit random string. By default, anybody who has your app's link, i.e. its publicKey, will have permission to run your app. Your app link can be easily shared with whomever you'd like, or embedded into your own applications.
Some customers want to restrict access, so that only authenticated users may run their app. For this purpose, we have a configuration option which can be set at either the app-level or the account-level.

App Level Permissions

App Level Permissions will override Account Level Permission Defaults
For the app-level setting, navigate to your Dashboard, then click the "manage" link for your app
Select "Manage" under your app
and finally configure the option under App Permissions.
App Level Permissions can also be applied when uploading the app via our REST API. See Create new app and Update existing app for more information.
Example App Level Permissions

Account Level Permissions

You may also set account-wide permissions on your Account.
