Create a channel
To start using LIFF, you must first create a provider and a channel on the LINE Developers console.
Note: If you do not have a LINE account, download LINE and create your LINE account.
Creating a provider and channel
Log in to the LINE Developers console and create a provider and a channel.
If you haven't logged in to the LINE Developers console before, it displays a page which prompts you to register as a developer. Enter your name and email address to create a developer account on the LINE Developers console.
1． Create a provider
A provider can be an individual, a company, or an organization that provides services through the LINE platform. Enter your own name or company name as the provider name.
On the LINE Developers console, click Create New Provider to create a provider. If there is already a provider you want to use, select that one.
2． Create a channel
A channel is a communication path between the LINE Platform's functions and a provider's services. Channels must have a name, description, and icon image.
Click the provider under which you want to group your LINE Login channel, and create your channel. If there is already a LINE Login channel you want to use, select it.
Do not include LINE
in the channel name.
At this time, users can add LIFF apps to the Messaging API channel. However, we strongly advise against it due to the following restrictions:
- The bot link function can't be used.
- LIFF function expansion may not be supported.
- The LIFF app may not be usable in the future.
LIFF apps added to the LINE Login channel have no restrictions and can use all LIFF v2 functions.
