How to use ACE without ngrok as a dependency?

Atlassian Developer Tools

We are in the process of building a custom Jira Cloud app with ACE. When doing so off of our corporate network everything works fine. When trying to setup/install on our corporate network it fails during “npm install” due to ngrok not being allowed due to security policies restricting it.

Is there a way to get the “npm install” to complete without the ngrok dependency in ACE?

Hi @robert.frymire ,

You do not need ngrok at all, it just makes development life at lot easier. If you can (or must) live without it, you can.

To do so, simply remove the corresponding line from devDependencies in package.json and run npm install again.

Hope that helps,
Oliver

Thanks! I had done that locally but missed packing it for distribution so I thought there was still an error.
