Creating a TV application from scratch.

Creating an Application

In your Rock instance, go ahead and navigate to Admin Tools > CMS Configuration > Apple TV Apps. Once there, create a new site.

Let's break this down.

Name - the name of your application. This is private to your Rock Instance, and isn't what it has to be named when published to the App Store.

Description - An optional description of the application.

Application Styles - These are the global styles that you can use throughout your application. If you're just getting in there to poke around, you can leave these blank initially.

Enable Page Views - Whether or not you want interaction data to be recorded.

API Key - The API key you plan to access the server with while testing your application.

Page View Retention Period - The number of days to keep page views logged. Keep empty for indefinitely.

Authentication Page - The page in your application that contains a Remote Authentication block.

After filling in these values, press Save and voila! You should see an outcome similar to this:

The Start Screen page is auto-generated and cannot be deleted, and is intended to be used as the home page for your application.
