Public apps just show a blank screen and Retool logo only

💬 App Building
1
  1. My goal: to view my app publicly with no login required.
  2. Issue: I’ve changed the sharing settings to Public, when I view the app it is a black screen with the Retool logo in the bottom left and nothing else.
  3. Steps I've taken to troubleshoot: Used the AI chat to help troubleshoot.
  4. Additional info: Cloud.

Just tested it using v1 of the Retool App builder and I can see the public page, however for my apps that were built using the v2 new Beta App builder its not working for those.

Welcome to the community, @dalem!

Ah that's what I was going to ask! Sharing via public URL isn't yet supported in the new app builder, but we plan on shipping that functionality soon after launch. I can follow up here with updates!

Thanks Darren for the reply! Ah that’ll be it then :slight_smile: any possible roadmap date on public sharing for v2?

I'm not aware of a specific date, @dalem, but will reach out internally. At a high level, though, it's definitely one of the features that is targeted for the post-launch beta phase.
