Support Request: Running external app automatically and keeping it opened

Description

Hi!
So, I'm working on this application (Electron + React) that's ran via SiteKiosk.
In this application there's only one way to programatically close it, however I'd like SiteKiosk to open up my app again immediately after it has been closed. Is there any way to set it up?

I currently have a SiteKiosk project that basically has only one page and one element on that page - auto action element. What this auto action does is starting up my external application installed on the machine.

Waiting for idle mode to kick in and reopen my app is not something I'm interested in, I need an "immediate" action.

Answer: (1)

Hello,

unfortunately, this is currently not yet possible and the application is only restarted when the idle time is reached.
However, with the next SiteKiosk Online version (planned realease in approx. 4 weeks) it will be possible to activate a "Keep App running" function for this.

Regards,
Michael Olbrich
