Application settings

To access the application configuration options, go to the Settings functional tab. The following categories of settings are available on the Settings page:

• Application settings
• Price plan
• Security
• Developers
• Push settings
• Application user authentication

Price plan

To set up a price plan for the application, use the Price plan link. The page that opens, shows information on the current active price plan and its activated options.

By default, the FREE price plan with the following options is activated:

• Requests per second – 20;
• Disk space – 10 GB;
• Push notifications – 500,000 (maximum);
• Server-side script execution time - 3 seconds;
• Developers – 1 (including the application owner).

To acquire additional options, you will need to change your price plan to INDIE. To change the price plan, use the Change link in the line with the same name.

In the pop-up window, enter how many months are required for the INDIE price plan (by default, 1). The service will calculate the price taking into account any discount. A discount is offered when a price plan/option is purchased for a period of more than 12 months. To confirm the price plan purchase, click the Purchase button.

Now you can purchase increases for the price plan option (if necessary). To do this, use the Change link in the line with the name of the required option, for example, Storage.

In the pop-up box, specify the number of months you want to purchase and the additional option size. The service will calculate the price taking into account your discount. To confirm the purchase of the additional price plan option size, click the Purchase button. The list of activated options will display information about all your purchases, with purchase dates and the dates when the settings will be deactivated.

When the purchased price plan and/or option expire, the existing restrictions will be recalculated based on the deactivation dates of all purchased add-ons to a certain price plan or option.

When all purchased option add-ons expire, its values are set to default.

When the INDIE price plan expires, the FREE price plan is activated with its option values.
