Accessing Metric Insights via Mobile App
As of 5.5.1, our mobile and web applications now support the entering of a server URL automatically, via a QR code.
The QR code:
- includes the unique server URL (in other words, the code will be specific to that server's URL if you have multiple environments for staging, production, etc.)
- does not include Username and Password
NOTE: the server URL only needs to be set when the app is first installed, or when a server needs to be changed
