I've installed smartface in action app on my samsung note 3 android device but when i click to the Map button the app does not show up any map or object inside the map window. I've recovered my phone to the factory settings and login to the google services again but there is no any difference. Is something going wrong? Can we work with map in smartface successfuly?
If you wanna work with map object in Smartface App Studio, you should take a map api token from Google Developer Console. And put this token into the manifest file. It is an obligation. By the way, do not forget that you will never run the map object in the emulator even if you got a token. You have to publish your application in the store. Here is a manifest example below.
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="YOUR_MAP_API_TOKEN"/>

I use google form to collect images. The images are stored in a folder in google drive. The folder is shared publicly so that all the photos within the folder are also public if the link is available. The responses are stored in google sheet and converted to a accessible file that i.e. change from "https://drive.google.com/open?id=" to "https://drive.google.com/uc?id=" so that images are directly accessible. The google sheet is connected with google data studio. I need to show these images in the data studio dashboard. What I could find as solution was to create a table with the image URLs. Using a table, I've tried to do the following
Created a new field in google data studio and added image function with a link as mentioned above.
Instead of creating a new field, changed the type of image URL column to URL as well as image.
Both above are working for me as an editor (during edit or view as shared in below images. But when I share the dashboard as a link and view it in incognito mode, it is not working. I hope I'm able to explain.
Google Form Link: https://forms.gle/FFjX7cV8tJUSx5GW9
Google sheet where data is collected : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1glpAId0LHgTUUtVk3RwakDr-H1KUXk3WtA-SE50HKXQ/edit?usp=sharing + also Embedded in google data studio
Google Data Studio link: https://datastudio.google.com/s/oaCN4EO-J4c
Its working for me as editor, but as a viewer in above link, its not working as visible in above data studio link
But as a viewer (incognito mode) images are not visible.
Actually, the images work for any user logged into its own Google account. The problem is really experienced when the dashboard is open with no logged user.
Diving into the problem, it seems to be related with the number of redirects that Google Drive need to access the image. Reproducing your dashboard I was able to see the error ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS in browser's Dev Mode.
Steps in logged mode:
Access https://drive.google.com/uc?id=[id]
302 Redirect to https://*.googleusercontent.com/docs/
The image is returned
Steps in non logged mode:
Access https://drive.google.com/uc?id=[id]
302 Redirect to https://*.googleusercontent.com/docs/...
302 Redirect to https://docs.google.com/nonceSigner?...
The image is returned
If you look into Dev Mode, it is possible to note that the URL ended with "/nonceSigner" is accessed dozens of times when not logged (the same does not happen when logged). This means that Data Studio start a loop trying to access the image, which triggers a "retry" operation when it sees a double redirect.
Curiously, this does not happen when using the standard Image control (instead of table chart, that reads from a DataSource), so it seems to be a bug in the Table chart component.
So you're out of luck. My suggestion is to use Cloud Storage instead of Google Drive, since it seems you're using some undocumented features and they'll surely break at some time.
Another option is to report this bug to DataStudio team (report here). There are Data Studio developers that activelly answer questions in StackOverflow (like Minhaz Kazi), so try to drive their attention to this issue.
I was having a related issue here - a colleague was not able to view images in a data studio dashboard, even though he was able to view the same files directly in Drive. It turned out to only be a problem using the Brave browser! I can't figure out what exactly was going on, but posting here in case it helps someone else.
I have a problem with my first PWA.
I have created one with reactjs and configured good manifest.
I follow step by step google guide.
PWA, works perfectly, and i see "add to home button".
After QA i wanted to publish it in store.
I used https://appmaker.xyz/pwa-to-apk.
Now i have app publish in the store but when i open it, i see a browser toolbar and i can't use it as a native app.
Someone can help me?
How about using TWA (Trusted Web Activity)?
Using Trusted Web Activities
This can be achieved by proving that the app and the web trust each other.
If you can prove it, you can prevent the browser toolbar from being displayed.
I'm sorry if you don't get the answer you want.
Hello Guys !
Today I deployed an app online to test it but didn't understood very well why it didn't work.
What I did :
I've created a sample react app using bootstrap and used firebase to deploy it. Here is the link.
What was expected ?
I wanted the app to be able to be downloaded on the phone as angular.io is.
Reality :
Nothing special. It's in fact registered in service worker and very fast to load and download, but nothing more.
Problem now :
I've done it today two times but wasn't able to use it as well as the image of service workers I had.
What should I do ?
You need a a 144px square PNG icon to be defined in your manifest.json to enable the web app install banner.
You can validate whether your application can be added to your homescreen from Chrome on a desktop computer.
To do so, open the Chrome developer tools on your website, open the 'Application' tab, click 'Manifest' in the left navigation and then click 'Add to homescreen'.
If there's a problem adding to homescreen an error will appear in the console, when trying it on the website you mentioned I received the error 'Site cannot be installed: a 144px square PNG icon is required, but no supplied icon meets this requirement'.
You can read more about the requirements for web app install banners here https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/app-install-banners/.
I have a mobile website/app that I created, and the map links opened the local map app before the IOS 7 upgrade. Now when I save the mobile site to the home screen, and click on the map link it opens up in Google Maps instead of the local Apple map app.
This is the code I am currently using:
<a href="http://maps.apple.com/?q=cupertino">
Please help, thanks!
Is it opening in the Google Maps app or website? If it's opening in the google maps app, it could be an issue with your default maps app (I honestly don't know)
Otherwise, that should work.
I would also maybe verify that you are not looking at a cached copy.
..also, is this Safari (default) or Chrome?
I have a Facebook web app that runs on canvas. The canvas URL is configured as http://apps.facebook.com/myApp (example). This URL has an FB.init that helps me identify and login the user by getting his name and FB user id. This app runs fine on a PC or a laptop.
This page is very simple with some JavaScript but with routine HTML tags like <p>, <input>.
I configured the same URL as Mobile Site URL under Mobile Web. Since then I can now see the link for this app on my mobile device (an Android phone). But when I click on the link, the first page of the app opens in my mobile browser but it seems that FB.init can't run there. I can't get the user id and use name.
What is the reason and what is the solution, i.e., how to make the same app run on users' mobile phones?
Thanks.
