Apps in Solutions Management

Apps in Solutions Management allows you to package folder apps into solution packages. You can deploy these solution packages to a different tenant, organization or environment.

Packaging an app into a solution even includes integrations and resources, such as storage buckets or entities. Once a solution is deployed, all resources are automatically created, and all integration references are automatically updated. You do not need to manually build any resources or update any integrations.

Key use cases for Apps in Solutions include the following:

  • Deploying an app from a development environment to a production environment.

  • Deploying upgrades or downgrades to an app,.

  • Deploy changes to integrations and resources in your app.

  • Maintaining consistency of the app URL across upgrades or downgrades.

For more details on managing solution deployments, refer to the Solutions Management documentation.

To package an app into a solution, apply the following steps:

  4. Once you have selected the resources, select Add. The Component properties window opens automatically.
    Note:

    There are two distinct resource categories: tenant-level resources and folder-level resources. For more details, refer to the Solution Components guide.
