Methods

App(int, PortalSettings, bool, bool, ILog)

Get a full app-object for accessing data of the app from outside

[Obsolete("This is obsolete in V13 but will continue to work for now, we plan to remove in v15 or 16. Use the IDynamicCodeService or the IRenderService instead.")]
public static IApp App(int appId, PortalSettings ownerPortalSettings, bool unusedButKeepForApiStability = false, bool showDrafts = false, ILog parentLog = null)

Parameters
