How to prevent the app enter the "sleep mode"?

Hi everyone, I created a webapp to share my research, but I found the app enters “sleep mode” pretty frequently. I found that the app enters “sleep mode” when there are no activities during a week, but I found it actually enters “sleep mode” more frequently (every ~3 days). I really want to prevent it before I formally publish it to the research community, and I wonder if there is any way to prevent it.

Also, I wonder whether “inactivity” refers to traffics (someone connected to the app) or action (such as clicking a button), so that I can prepare to prevent it.

Thanks a lot!

All apps without traffic for one weekday will go to sleep. The system checks apps for inactivity throughout each day as follows:

  • Tuesday through Friday: All apps without traffic for 24 hours (one day) will go to sleep.
  • Saturday through Monday: All apps without traffic for 72 hours (three days) will go to sleep.

Community Cloud hibernates apps to conserve resources and allow the best communal use of the platform. To keep your app awake, simply visit the app or commit to your app’s repository, even if it’s an empty commit!

Thank you! I’ll try to do that.
