Possible to have specific apps without authentication?

Hi all,
Is it possible to define certain apps to be accessible without authentication while still have other require authentication?

Hi

see this : https://www.shinyproxy.io/documentation/configuration/#no-authentication

Thanks, but that’s a global setting right? We needed to have individual applications not needing authentication.

If you are using a load balancer, you can achieve this by using two shinyproxy instances : one with auth, and the second without.

After that you parse the request path, in the load balancer level, to see into which instance you redirect the trafic.

This is indeed currently not supported. You can find more information why here: https://github.com/openanalytics/shinyproxy/issues/330
