@Healthiva5F85 Currently, our services expect the Zip in a certain format with a default index.html since, it needs to know which file within the zip is the root html file. All other resources within the zip are just helping build the entire html page. 

We would like to avoid external calls from the html page due to security reasons and thus all the referenced resources should be included within the zip file.
