Note that instructions below are done using the web store's beta UI. You should be able to opt into it at the top of the old homepage.

  1. The portal for managing the version / deployment is Google's Chrome Web Store. You should be able to access with your Branch.io email. If not, contact Alex A. Here is the link https://chrome.google.com/u/1/webstore/devconsole/g07648451938746536848?hl=en

  2. To upload a new package, click on the "Branch Link Creator" in the dev console and select "Package" from the left hand menu. Here's the link https://chrome.google.com/u/1/webstore/devconsole/g07648451938746536848/pekdpppibljpmpbcjelehhnldnfbglgf/edit/package?hl=en

  3. Update the "manifest.json" file in the root directory of the repo to increment the "version" string.
