Is FlowForge and UI-builder compatible?

[Sulomus]

Is there a way to make FlowForge and UI-builder work together?

I installed the contrib-ui-builder package into FlowForge cloud but can't make any changes because everytime it asks me for user and password (and I have no idea what combination to enter):

But even if I could enter the username password I want to ask if putting any more effort into this is logical - or FlowForge and UI-builder are not yet compatible (my main concern is also if it will work OKay on the EdgeDevice)?

The only reason I can think of that cause a HTTP Basic Auth password prompt to show up like that is if UI Builder has bound to the httpNodes routes and you have enabled security under the projects settings:

Anything accesses by the editor should probably be bound to the htttpAdmin routes so as not to trigger the authentication (but this should still apply to access the UI builder output)

Also since UI Builder writes things to the userDir (/data) in the container this will be lost on a container/stack restart, while I believe it will be rebuilt as part of the flow starting up, this is not the best in a cloud environment.

Okay thank you I will try it.

I am only concerned if it will work on the EdgeDevice. Can you make any prediction about that?

I don't use UI Builder so I have no first hand experience, but I don't see why it shouldn't work as long as it is capable of recreating all the parts it stores in /data (which will be /opt/flowforge-device/project on the device) when it loads the flow for the first time.
