Follow these steps to get started with Build Distro by Runway.
Navigate to the build distribution page in your Runway app.
Click Get Started. Note that only admin users in your org can opt your app into Build Distro.
[Recommended] Connect a supported CI/CD integration and configure your workflow settings. This step is optional – you can always manually upload builds to buckets.
The following build system integrations are not supported with Build Distro:
App Center Build
TravisCI
That’s it! If you've connected and configured a CI/CD integration, builds will start to populate in your respective buckets, and you can start installing by clicking “Install” on any installable build on a bucket.
Runway's Build Distro can help your team get build distribution set up in just a few steps as long as your team is already generating binary artifacts from your CI/CD workflow and making them available for download. For some CI/CD integration providers, making build artifacts available for download is the default behavior, so nothing needs to be done in order to get Build Distro set up in Runway. For other providers, you may have to add an export step to your CI/CD workflow to make build artifacts available for download by Runway. See the table below for more details on how to make build artifacts available to be pulled into Runway Build Distro for your provider.
