Deploy the app

Do the following to deploy the app on your server:

2. Deploy it on your web server.
3. Browse to the directory where the app from step 2 is locally hosted and open the app config.json file.
4. Add a proxy to your app. Refer to Use proxy for details.
   *Important: Make sure that the proxy applied to your app works as expected. The map or widgets might fail if the proxy is set inappropriately.
5. Add and register the app. Refer to  Add apps  and Register your app for details.
6. Copy and paste the AppID to the appId property in the config.json file.
