Now that we know how to manage the
location where apps are deployed, let's
take a look at how to manage apps inside
the tenant. First of all, to access the
app management location from the
SharePoint Online admin center, you must
go into Classic features and there you
will see Apps. We can configure quite a
few things in here, but let's take a look
at them in detail. First of all, the store
settings. Do you want to allow users to
get apps from the marketplace? You can
turn this on so that users don't have to
go for approval, or if not, you can turn
on the approval process so an admin needs
to approve them before they get bought or
deployed. Next up, should the apps for
Office from the store be able to start
when documents are opened in the browser,
and finally, if you have app request
approval turned on, you can view the
current pending app requests. Next up,
purchasing apps from the SharePoint store,
which allows you as an admin to purchase
apps or add-ins from the SharePoint store
and make them available for the whole
tenant. Different apps in the marketplace
have different pricing structures from
free to price per tenant or price per user
that is enabled to use the app. If they're
not free and especially if they are per
user, the Manage Licenses page will allow
you to manage licenses for add-ins
purchased from the store, adding and
removing licenses for a certain app, and
also adding license managers that can do
this without being an administrator. We
can also monitor apps and see the license
purchased, installed locations, and
runtime errors in the last four days.
Something that is important is that apps
are not added to the monitoring list
automatically so you must manually add the
apps in there, and I suggest adding it as
soon as you buy it, because if you have a
problem with them, if they have runtime
errors, you don't want to wait until see
it; you want to make sure that you can
always go in that page and see if they had any errors in the last few days.
