App Resource


(warning)

Microvisor Public Beta

Microvisor is in a pre-release phase and the information contained in this document is subject to change. Some features referenced below may not be fully available until Microvisor's General Availability (GA) release.

An App instance represents application code uploaded to the Twilio cloud and able to be installed on one or more Microvisor-empowered Devices.

App resources are accessed at this endpoint:

https://microvisor.twilio.com/v1/Apps

Make a GET request to the endpoint to receive a list (in JSON) of all App resources.

Every App instance can be referenced in the API either by its unique SID or a user-defined unique name:

1
https://microvisor.twilio.com/v1/Apps/{sid}
2
https://microvisor.twilio.com/v1/Apps/{uniqueName}

Application code represented by an App resource can be installed on a device using its Device resource.


New App resources

new-app-resources page anchor

You do not create App resources directly. Instead, a new App resource is created for you whenever you upload application code, in the form of a Microvisor app bundle, to the Twilio cloud. This is achieved with the following curl command:

1
curl -X POST https://microvisor-upload.twilio.com/v1/Apps \
2
-H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
3
-F File=@/path/to/app/bundle \
4
-u <YOUR_ACCOUNT_SID>:<YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN>

This call will return App metadata in JSON form from which you can read the App's unique SID and which you will use to deploy the application to a device.
