<title>Description</title>
<para>
Flatpak uses flatpakref files to share information about a remote for
a single application. The <filename>flatpakref</filename> file contains
enough information to add the remote and install the application.
Use the <command>flatpak install --from</command> command to do so.
</para>
<para>
flatpakref files may also contain additional information that is useful
when displaying the application to the user, e.g. in an app store.
</para>
<para>
The filename extension commonly used for flatpakref files is <filename>.flatpakref</filename>.
</para>
<para>
A flatpakref file can also refer to a remote for a runtime.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>File format</title>
<para>
The flatpakref file is using the same .ini file format that is used for
systemd unit files or application .desktop files.
</para>
<refsect2>
<title>[Flatpak Ref]</title>
<para>
All the information is contained in the [Flatpak Ref] group.

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>DeploySideloadCollectionID</option> (string)</term>
<listitem><para>
The collection ID of the remote, if it has one. This uniquely
identifies the collection of apps in the remote, to allow peer to peer
redistribution (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>flatpak</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
It is recommended to use this key over DeployCollectionID or CollectionID because
only newer clients (Flatpak 1.12.8 or later) pay attention to it (and older clients don't handle
collection IDs properly).

<listitem><para>The url for a .flatpakrepo file for the remote where the runtime can be found.
Note that if the runtime is available in the remote providing the app, that remote may be
used instead but the one specified by this option will still be added.</para></listitem>
