NEED HELP

I tried uploading react app on zendesk but getting error

 

manifest.json:

{

  "name": "Customer App React",

  "author": {

    "name": "Mohit",

    "email": "myemail@google.com"

  },

  "defaultLocale": "en",

  "private": true,

  "location": {

    "support": {

      "ticket_sidebar": {

        "url": "http://localhost:3000/",

        "flexible": true

      }

    }

  },

  "version": "1.0",

  "frameworkVersion": "2.0"

}


I first run this command : npm run build
This created one folder dist which have only one folder by the name assets

Afterwards I run this command : zcli apps:create ./dist

Then got this error : Error: Invalid app path: ./dist

Hey ​@Mohit12 ,
It looks like you might not be in the correct directory when running the command.

Make sure you’re executing:

zcli apps:create ./dist

from the root directory of your app, not from inside the dist folder.

If you’re already inside dist, then ./dist won’t exist relative to that path, which can cause the Invalid app path error

Great reply by ​@Sushant 

 

@Mohit12 If that didn’t solve it, could you share:

  • a screenshot of your terminal/console when running the command
  • and your folder structure from your IDE (especially what’s inside dist)

That will make it much easier to pinpoint whether it’s a path issue or the app structure itself.
