Migrate to Exb Developer v. 1.20 No Apps

[JaredPilbeam2]

This happened last time I migrated two years ago to v 1.16. Now I can't seem to get my apps to show on the localhost:3001 page for the most recent upgrade. Following the migrate instructions, it should be simple.

I downloaded the new version. There was no apps folder under server/public so I created one. Then I copied over an apps folder from the old version (v 1.16). I opened the local page and I actually seen my app for a split second flash on the screen, but after that no app. I created a new Client ID in AGOL. No difference.

The info.json is still showing version 1.16.0.

With help of Support this was resolved. Workflow:

• First we created a new test app in v1.20. This generated a new app folder in the exp builder dev edition in the server folder.

• In the test app's path expBuilderv1.20/server/public/apps/<testApp>, we opened the info.json file.

• In the info.json file, the portalUrl property was set to "https://WillCountyGIS.maps.arcgis.com" by default.

• Comparing it with the portalURL property of the info.json file of the apps in v1.16, we found that the portalUrl was the same but with different casing "https://willcountygis.maps.arcgis.com".

• This difference caused the apps to not be recognized in the v1.20 exp builder.

• Then we simply copied all the apps to upgrade from v1.16/server/public/apps to the server/public/apps folder of v1.20 as suggested by the documentation:

• https://developers.arcgis.com/experience-builder/guide/upgrade/

• Finally, we changed the portalUrl to "https://WillCountyGIS.maps.arcgis.com" for all the copied app's info.json in v1.20.

• We also made sure the id property matched the number on the app folder.
