Cannot Create App

Hi 

 

I have quite a handful of reports and the workspace which is backed by premium cap[acity is really looking cluttered now. I want to create and publish apps so it is easy to organize and essentially publish dedicated reports to dedicated apps. I was able to create an app sometime ago last month but now I don't see any option for it. I can't recall how exactly I have done it. I all see is update app option in the premium workspace where all my reports are published. And I see the option to include the reports in this app. Below are the images to get a clear idea of what is going on.

And the Apps page looks like this below

The Create or Publish app is no where to be seen. 

Am I missing something here or is this a bug I need to report?

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

There can be only one APP for one APP workspace. After publishing the APP, the "Publish APP" option will become "Update APP". You could also unpublish the APP.

The Update App button in the workspace is persistent even when I delete the app. If I include a report in the app and update app the app seems to come back in the apps page. This entire thing is confusing. Please help!!!
