Docker

The sample application comes with a preconfigured schema. You can find the sample application's schema file in the tools folder for your project:

project-folder\tools\project-name-schema.yaml
To upload your schema

  1. If you aren't there already, go to the tools folder for your project and platform. Your project-folder is path\project-name using the values that you provided when you created the project.

    At a Windows command prompt, enter:

    cd project-folder\tools\windows

  2. Use the helper script to upload the schema.

    .\upload-schema-project-name.bat
