Update your apps to Unified Interface

  • Article

When you enable Unified Interface Only, all your apps, including those designed for the legacy web client, run in Unified Interface all the time. Environments with legacy web client apps will show a notification on the home page, prompting System Administrators to update those apps to Unified Interface, as shown below:

"You are using apps designed for the legacy web client. For best results, update your apps to Unified Interface."

Message: using apps for legacy web client.

A similar notification will be visible to System Administrators whenever they use an app designed for the legacy web client, as shown below:

"This app is designed for the legacy web client and might have features or customizations that aren't supported in Unified Interface. For best results, update it to Unified Interface."

Message: using apps designed for legacy web client.
