Launching the Pendo designer for Electron applications
Our web application is hosted in an electron app
Did anyone succeeded launching the pendo designer in order to create in-app guides when running in Electron framework?
Thanks

Hi!
Electron apps do have a slightly different process for launching the designer. To launch the designer you'll need to open the Developer Tools through the Electron app (note your Electron app can have the Dev tools suppressed but you'll need a version with it enabled to launch the designer).
Once Dev Tools is opened and you're on the Console tab you can run
pendo.designerv2.launchInAppDesigner()
This will then open the designer and then login to Pendo.
This is a common blocker so it’s important to work closely with the individuals responsible for coding the Electron application so that you can avoid these potential obstacles.
Verify that you can open the Developer Console

application. Below is a code example
Just to confirm, is this still officially supported?
