App Versioning in Self Hosting model

By default, whenever a project is created for a particular app version, it is applicable only for that app version. The Whatfix cloud targets the in-app experience to the correct app version and shows them to your end users. With self-hosting, the Whatfix Mobile content is stored in your private server or cloud. There is no connection to the Whatfix cloud and hence the targeting does not happen in the cloud.
Therefore, in the self-hosting model, the app version targeting is done by the device, that is, the mobile phone. To target the in-app experience to the correct app version, you have to create a Custom Segment and then publish your content to that segment.

App versioning for self-hosted content involves two steps.

• Step 1: Create a Custom Segment to target content to the particular App Version
• Step 2: Create and publish the project

2. In the navigation panel, click User Segments.
   

3. Click + Create Segment.
   

4. Click Create user segment.
   

5. Enter a name for the User Segment.
   

6. Click Add Rules.
