Once you’ve downloaded the SDK and have stored it in a location of your choice, it’s time to open Terminal.
For further reference, you can find FileMaker’s Guide for iOS app SDK 18 here: You’ll need to get your hands slightly dirty with the Mac’s Terminal and Xcode, but don’t worry we’ll only be scraping the surface of these powerful applications.Ĭonsider this a quick “getting started” guide.

Perhaps you configure your launcher file with an OnFirstWindWindow trigger to open your hosted app. For example, reminding them to connect to a VPN. Since your launcher file will be a local app, you can trigger your own custom messages if a user can’t reach the host file. If your organization has a suite of apps, your launcher file can have a custom landing page completely designed by you.Īdditionally, with a launcher file, you’ll have the added benefit of better error handling. In fact, you can keep the host address private.Ĭustomization is a huge benefit because your app and its icon can entirely carry your own branding. This can remove the steps of having your users download FileMaker Go, by pointing them to the correct host on numerous devices. FileMaker Pro’s iOS SDK can make distributing your app a lot easier! If you’re dealing with a large user base, using SDK can create a ‘launcher file’ to distribute through MDM (Mobile Device Management).
