Intro

You can create different navigation configurations for your Domo mobile apps, allowing app users to more quickly access the content most relevant to them. This is done through creating and customizing mobile app configurations. The Mobile Configuration feature is available for all organizations. If your organization doesn’t use Mobile Configuration, individuals can still personalize their individual app navigation. Need support? Check out our FAQ or contact your Domo account team.

Required Grants

There are two available grants for mobile configuration:
  • Edit Mobile App Configurations — This allows users to create, edit, and delete mobile app configurations to which they have access. Note: This grant does not allow the holder to grant permissions in a configuration. This grant is for non-admin users who need to make changes to mobile app configurations.
  • (Admin-only) Manage All Mobile App Configurations — This allows admin-level users to create, edit, and delete all mobile app configurations.

Access Mobile App Configuration Settings

Access the mobile app configuration settings from Admin Settings. In Admin Settings under Content, select Mobile. In the App registry tab, you can view the mobile apps in your instance. Note: Most instance registries only contain the Domo and Domo Task Center apps (if you’re using Domo Task Center).
