What are apps?

Apps are one of Tela’s main features. They are useful when you already have a reliable Canvas and need to give different users a way to create multiple runs of your Canvas at the same time, providing files to populate a Variable and downloading the result of all the runs in a spreadsheet.
Our apps are related to a Canvas, but you can share the app link with any person with access to your workspace and they will be able to use the app without needing to interact with the Canvas.

​
Creating an App

After publishing a version of your Canvas, you can click the Deploy button in the top right corner of your canvas page:
Deploy button
When starting the Deploy process, you will be prompted to select one of the 2 available templates. Tela currently supports 2 app Templates, the simpler Data Extraction Tool and the more robust Workstation. We will explain each one in details in a while. Regardless of the selected template, clicking Continue will take you to the app configuration dialog, where you can add a name and a simple description of your app. You can also select the Document Variable which will be populated with the input files when running your new app.
We currently support only one variable per app, but we are working on experiences with multiple variables
After configuring your app, you can copy and share your app link or click Open Web App to see your app in action! Now that you have configured and opened your app’s page, we can dive deeper into each one of the templates.

​
Updating your App

If your app is not getting the results you expect, maybe you need to edit your prompt or change something in your Canvas.
You can go directly to the Canvas associated with your app by clicking the … button in the top left corner of your App’s page.
Your app is associated with the Published version of your Canvas, so please remember to publish your canvas to see the changes in your app.
