After creating an "App on Facebook", how can I find the URL to actually view it within the Facebook chrome?

In the image below (from Facebook's Documentation), the top line shows the url for the Canvas Page withing facebook. However, my "edit app" page does NOT have this field, but is otherwise identical.

enter image description here

The URL doesn't appear to be listed anywhere in https://developers.facebook.com/apps/, and I just don't know where else to look.

Ideas?

I figured it out after reading the documentation more carefully ;-)

To get the URL to appear, you need to set the App "Namespace" in the settings.
