Browse to 'README.md' in app file path

NullZero
Path Finder

I have a client who wants to share the Readme file in their app with end users so that they can reference this in the UI. Seems reasonable and prevents them having to duplicate content into a view. Otherwise the readme file is only available to admins who have CLI access.

I have tried using the REST endpoint to locate the file, I have checked that the metadata allows read, it is just the path and actual capability I am unclear on.

Thanks

I've been researching this for the last 30 minutes and can't find anything to let you read that file.  Everything is around the conf files only, so not even scripts or such.  You could look into a dashboard with a custom javascript call maybe but that is outside my wheelhouse to even know if that is possible.
