I'm trying to get review apps up and running on Heroku. In my usecase I have a bunch of custom domains and I have postdeploy and pr-predestroy scripts that correctly setup all of that. However ACM is not getting enabled for the new apps, so none of the URL's gets certs until someone goes and manually enables ACM. Is there a way to have ACM automatically enabled for new review apps? If it matters any we are manually triggering the creation of the review apps.
The best answer I found was to use the platform API to enable ACM from the postdeploy script https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/platform-api-reference#app-enable-acm

I'm a hobby developer that use Parse.com as my database and website host, as Facebook is going to shutdown Parse.com, I'm now looking for alternative Parse server.
I use Parse's Cloud Code Hosting to build Dynamic Web App, and Parse itself to store data collected from the website I've build, with custom Cloud Code to help getting and managing data. I've build a Windows Phone app for myself to manage the data I've collected too.
Is there any alternative server that has my requirement?
Dynamic Website
Database host
Custom Cloud Code (with BeforeSave and AfterSave trigger)
with Windows Phone SDK (or REST API if doesn't have)
Very thank you for helping me!
Try out Hasura.
Hasura (http://www.hasura.io): Hasura is a neat PaaS + BaaS solution. It is now competing with Firebase, Kinvey, Heroku et al. There is a full comparison page here: Compare | Hasura (https://compare.beta.hasura.io) . The difference majorly lies in infra ownership as well as no tech lock-in due to open-source components(like docker, kubernetes,postgres) building the major chunk of the platform. Check it out. There is also an option to explore (https://explore.beta.hasura.io/) Hasura by building your own blog web app and a todo app in under 15 mins.
Hasura should fit in perfectly for your needs.

I'm using Simbla website application development. It doesn't support all of your requirments but it has great UI builder with a backend parse database.
You can try using the parse open source server it has cloud code and you can use a custom database with it.
We have a google-marketplace-app which is already published and actively used by consumers. But there is a new requirement, where we need to block any new installations of the app without impacting the existing consumers.
Is there a straight forward option to achieve this? Or do we have to unpublish existing app and republish with some specific options (i.e: "visibility-options")?
The ideal expectation from our perspective is not to let existing app consumers/domain-admins to perform anything on this regard. But only that existing domains needs to whitelisted from our end (by app developers) to allow installation of the app to admins of those domains, where as any other domains shouldn't have install access (even with direct app installation link).
Appreciate any recommendations on this.
In the Chrome Developer Dashboard there is an option to add trusted testers to the app. The accounts that are in that list will have the visibility to the application.
You can also create a group and add that group to the list, and the people inside that group will also have visibility to the app.
Here you can find the documentation related to this. Hope this helps.
My company has an application related to workflow automation and we need to deploy it on Google Market place for work. But before making it live or (other customers can view/download it) we need to test our application on a market place. I need to ask if there is a way to test application before deployment or any sandbox testing environment available?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Kind regards
When publishing your app in the Chrome Developer Dashboard you can publish to your test accounts. Your app will be visible only for those accounts. Here you can find more info on that.
Is there any easy way to repeatedly test the installation process of a Google Marketplace App on a new domain? It seems as though when you try to install an app to a domain to which it's already been installed, parts of the process are short-circuited, even if the app's permissions on that domain have been revoked. Is there any way around this short of registering a throwaway domain for every test? Being able to automate this test would be even better, but even a repeatable manual test would be very useful.
Unfortunately you need to delete the application and install it again each time from what I gather.
You can revoke the auth here: https://www.google.com/a/your-domain-here/IssuedAuthSubTokens
You definitely don't need to register throwaway domains every time.
If you're trying to test your integration, there is "TEST INSTALL FLOW' button right in the Google APIs Console that starts a test flow. Here's a screenshot:
That's especially useful when you want to test your integration before it is published to the Google Apps Marketplace (but it still works once it is published.)
If you actually install it from the Marketplace as a tester or once published, you can go to the app listing and remove the app. Since we've launched I've added and removed my apps that way quite a few times :) Here's a screenshot:
#aleckz suggestion won't actually work since tokens are Admin authorized and not revokable by the domain user.
I have my app fully deployed for free at https://blooming-summer-8571.herokuapp.com/ but want to start paying for hosting for my own custom domain. I have also bought a domain name that I want to put my app on. What are the best resources or even google search key words that will help me do this through heroku?
Your best bet is to go through the heroku dev center located at:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/
There are topics from the very basics to more advanced ones. You're looking for the custom domain setup, instructions for which can be found here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/custom-domains
