Apps

Apps let you create shareable, public-facing views of your project data. Combine dashboards, forms, and wiki pages into a single app and share it with anyone using a public link.

The apps page

The apps list

The apps list shows all apps in your project. Use the search bar at the top to filter apps by name as you type.

Each app in the list has a three-dot options menu (...) with the following actions:

• Share - opens the app's public URL so you can copy and share it

• Settings - navigates to the app settings page

• Delete - permanently removes the app and its public link

Create an app

1. Open the Apps module from the project sidebar.

2. Click the Create App button in the top-right toolbar.

3. Enter an App Name (3 to 64 characters).

4. Click Create.

Your new app opens in the app builder, ready for you to add pages.

The app builder

The app builder shows the list of pages currently in your app. Each page links to a dashboard, form, or wiki page from your project.

The apps page

Add a page

Pages are added by pasting in the shared link of a dashboard, form, or wiki page from your project.

1. Open your app from the apps list.

2. Click Add Page in the top-right toolbar.

3. Paste the shared link for the content you want to add. The link should be in the format app.informationhub.io/dashboard/..., app.informationhub.io/form/..., or app.informationhub.io/wiki/....

4. Click Add.

The page is added to your app and is immediately accessible through the app's public link.

To get a shared link for a dashboard, open the dashboard and click the Share button. Do the same for forms and wiki pages that have sharing enabled.

Reorder or remove pages

1. Click the Edit toggle in the toolbar to enter edit mode. The button changes to a filled style when edit mode is active.

2. Drag pages up or down using the drag handle on the left of each row to reorder them.

3. Click the trash icon on a page row to remove that page from the app.

4. Click Edit again to exit edit mode.

Share your app

Click the Share button in the toolbar to open a popover showing your app's public link. Click the copy icon to copy the link to your clipboard, then send it to your audience.

Viewers do not need an Information Hub account to access a public app.

Navigate to settings

Click the Settings button in the toolbar to go to the app settings page.

App settings

The app settings page lets you change the app name, control who can access it, and delete the app.

1. Open the Apps module from the project sidebar.

2. Click ... next to an app and select Settings, or click Settings inside the app builder.

Name

Enter a new name for your app and click Save to apply the change.

Visibility

The Visibility setting controls who can open the app:

Option	Who can access
Private	Only project members with the link
Public	Anyone with the link - no login required
Protected	Requires a password or project membership

Change the visibility and click Save.

Use Public when you want to share results with external stakeholders, publish open data, or create a simple data portal. Use Protected if you need to restrict access to invited users.

Delete an app

At the bottom of the app settings page, click Delete in the Delete App section. This permanently removes the app and its public link. The underlying dashboards, forms, and wiki pages are not affected.

Deleting an app cannot be undone. Anyone with the public link will no longer be able to access it.
