It seems that POS Links are discontinued and deprecated as of February 28th. POS links (legacy)
Until now, I’ve been using a POS Link for my app. The user can click the application on the order page, and I show a page built with Polaris, React, and App Bridge, hosted on AWS, where the user can perform some operations.
Now, POS Links are disappearing, and I need to migrate to POS UI Extensions. I just need a way to open the link to my app. However, it seems the Navigation API doesn’t support external links.
Does this mean I have to rebuild my entire application for the POS? I still have to maintain the old version for the admin, but I’m not seeing a way to render it for the POS.
POS Links enabled app developers to embed an external link for a merchant to open from a Tile.
These are being deprecated in February, with the intent to be replaced by POS Extensions.
However, POS Extensions don’t have a way to open external links. Therefore it breaks our app, since our apps rely on using the external camera on the device and other embedded A.I. models available to run on JavaScript in browser.
Hey @Dylan , genuinely curious about your AI model, would it run in our JavaScript sandbox environment if you had access to the device camera in the UI Extension? If the camera component returned some sort of data or file, could feed that to your model in the sandbox? Are there networking calls involved?
