#### Create a New App

When an app is created a new Portainer stack is deployed on the server you selected with the latest docker compose from our Apps Library. Using the Forge API a site is also created for the app in Nginx and a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate is activated for the site.

The following fields are required when creating a new app.

##### Application to Install

To create a new app you first select the application to install from the Apps Library or in the dropdown on this page.

##### Server

Select what server to deploy this application to. The server must have a Portainer URL and API Key configured to appear in this dropdown.

##### Application Name

The Portainer stack will be created with this name.

##### Site URL

The Site URL for the application you are installing. Usually this is a subdomain like ex: [https://myapp.formable.app](https://myapp.formable.app)

##### Internal URL

The default is assigned for you based on the default port this Portainer stack runs on, ex: [http://localhost:30000](http://localhost:30000)

These fields are optional:

##### Redirect URL

If a Redirect URL is configured the Nginx proxy will redirect to this URL instead of proxying the Internal URL.

##### Create Uptime Kuma Monitor

If enabled an Uptime Kuma Monitor is created for every Uptime Kuma Provider configured for the user.

##### Create Homarr App

If enabled a Homarr App is created in Homarr with an icon and link so it's easy to manage custom dashboards.

##### Notifications Enabled

If enabled notifications will be sent for this app.

#### Application Configuration

App configuration fields are populated dynamically based on the Application to Install selection.

#### Additional Information

Adding a note will create a pinned note for this app and email a copy to the support team.

**Once you click Add App transformable.app deploys the app and emails the link you when it's done. Status is also shown on screen.**
