Where are Apps stored ?
Thematic applications are stored as atom feed in Terradue catalogue (e.g https://catalog.terradue.com//hydro-apps/search?format=atom&uid=globalapp).
How is organized an App ?
An app is using the OWS Context format, adapted for the purpose of the Thematic Applications. It contains the following parts:
Identifier: Unique identifier of the app
Title: Title of the app
Summary: Description of the app
Icon: Url to icon of the app
Authors: List of authors of the app
Categories
-
Keywords: List of keywords associated to the app
<category term="keyword" label="Geohazards" /> -
App status: App status (e.g “Prototype”, “Under development”, …) displayed in the thematic app list
<category term="appstatus" label="Under development" /> -
App type: App type (e.g “Products”, “Service”, …) displayed in the thematic app list

How to save an App ?
Save first your app as an atom file (e.g globalapp-app.atom)
curl -u <username>:<apikey> -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/atom+xml" -H "Accept: application/xml" -d@globalapp-app.atom "https://catalog.terradue.com/<index>/"
If an app with the same identifier exists in the <index> index of the catalogue, it will be overwritten with the new content.
How to associate an App to a community ?
In the community management tab, insert the opensearch link which returns the App or a list of Apps.
Apps can be filtered using series (e.g https://catalog.terradue.com//hydro-apps/series/search?q=esa).
Create an App using the Editor tool
On the TEPs platforms, as starter or explorer user, I have access in the Thematic app discovery page to a button “Create new app” which directs the user to the App editor page (e.g https://geohazards-tep-ref.terradue.com/#!apps).
From this link, a user can create his own private thematic app. Administrators can use this to create apps also for other indexes.
