	50	+== Getting your app instance context ==
	51	+
	52	+Instances of your applications will be installed by collab authors in many different collabs. In order to let you customise the user experience based on its context, the Collaboratory will automatically pass query parameters to your app:
	53	+
	54	+* **##clb-collab-id##**: the unique, human-readable identifier of the collab.
	55	+* ##**clb-doc-path**##: the path of your app instance within the collab. If your app is at the root of a collab, this value will be empty.
	56	+* ##**clb-doc-name**##: the name of the document where your app instance is installed.
	57	+* ##**clb-drive-id**##: the unique identifier of the drive of the collab. This id is required if you want to fetch or store documents within the drive of the collab.

	61	+The app settings are the values the collab author can modify to change the behaviour of your application within her collab.

	63	+=== Writing settings ===
	64	+
	65	+The Collaboratory comes with a mechanism to let your app store these settings directly in the Collaboratory.
	66	+
	67	+In order to do that, your app needs to use the [[postMessage javascript API>>https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage]] to send the settings to store to the Collaboratory:
	68	+
	69	+{{code language="javascript"}}
	70	+window.parent.postMessage({
	71	+ topic: '/clb/community-app/settings',
	72	+ data: {

	74	+ setting2: 'setting 2 value',
	75	+ ...
	76	+ }, 'https://wiki.humanbrainproject.eu');
	77	+{{/code}}
	78	+
	79	+=== Fetching settings ===

	81	+The Collaboratory will get the settings from its key/value store and pass them to your app through query parameters.
