For most cases, we recommend using your full Canny site instead (your-company.canny.io).

Mobile Widget

These are instructions on how to put Canny's widget into your mobile app.

  1. 1. Create a WebView

    Note: For iOS, you'll need to use a WKWebView.

    Load the following URL:

    To find your board token, log in above and select your board from the dropdown.

    https://webview.canny.io?boardToken=YOUR_BOARD_TOKEN&ssoToken=

    You should now be able to open the widget in your app. 😃

    Optionally, you can include the theme parameter to specify the theme (options are light [default], dark, auto).

  2. 2. Configure the ssoToken parameter for Single Sign-On

    Single Sign-On connects the widget to your existing user accounts. This provides a more seamless experience for your users. It also lets you know exactly who is posting and voting.

    Follow our Setup Single Sign-On guide to generate SSO tokens on your server.

    The mobile widget only works with SSO, so if you aren't planning on using it then link users to your-company.canny.io instead.
