Launching a Bubble from a Remote Launcher
These instructions assume you have already set up a Remote Launcher.
Create a user
Click the “Sign Up” button in the header to create a new user account.
Note: You could sign in using the root account and launch a Bubble from there, but this is discouraged for security reasons. It is highly recommended to launch new Bubbles using a regular user account, and not your Remote Launcher root account. You should use the root account on the Remote Launcher only to manage the system itself.
Verify user
After you create a user, the Remote Launcher will send an email with a verification link. Click the link in the email to verify your new account.
Launch Bubble
After you click the verification link, you should see a “Launch Bubble” screen.
Choose your configuration options, then click the “Launch Your Bubble!” button kick things off.
The screen will refresh and show a progress meter. A typical launch will take about 10 minutes.
Your Very First Bubble
The very first Bubble you launch will use a packer image that was created during activation.
If the image is still being built or needs to be built, that will add some time to the launch process.
The Bubble packer documentation has more details on this process.
Install Bubble Native Apps
While your Bubble is launching, take a moment to install the Bubble Native app on each device you plan on connecting to your Bubble.
When your Bubble finishes launching, it will show a “Connect to Bubble” button. Click this and you’ll be connected to your Bubble Node.
