Dedicated Data app URL in KNIME Business hub

KNIME Business Hub
1

Hi Team

Can you let me know how we can deploy data app separately for my applications?

if they browse hub URL (Ex -https://apps.knimehubtest.com) - Users can see all the data apps published and which they have access.

I want to make sure the end-users to use the separate data app URL for my application deployed in knime business hub.

Hi @narayanan , you can also provide links for end-users for specific data apps that do not require them logging in to the apps page of the Hub:
https://docs.knime.com/latest/business_hub_user_guide/index.html#data-app-link-wo-login

Would this satisfy your request?

Hi.
Is the only way to get a data app-specific URL to use the “Create Link Without Login” button in the deployment tab? I’d like to provide a URL to end users (consumers) to make it easy for them to find and run my data app, but I’d also like to have some control over authentication and authorization.
Thanks

hi dnaki, if the Deployment is shared with the user/consumer, you can copy the specific Data App link from the browser on the Data App portal.

Thank you but this (without login link) will provide anonymous access right?

@narayanan
It depends.
You can verify by logging out of the KBH, and then use a private/incognito window to try the link.

Some workflows use nodes that provide authentication via the login (using the KNIME Hub Authenticator node, for example). Others control authentication with secrets or with user-entered credentials. If the workflow does not have built-in authentication requirements, then yes, the Link without login will work for a user who is not logged in.
On the other hand, if the workflow requires some authentication beyond what the non-logged-in user has, then it will fail to run.

Also, as clarification regarding copying the regular data app link for user convenience, note that the link to the application ends at the slash after the app id, for example:
