Now that we have seen the theory, let's go
to the lab and see how we can manage the
apps inside our SharePoint Online tenant.
We are now in the lab environment so let
me open up the browser, and let's go into
Classic features and go into Apps. So here
is where we manage all of our
applications. We have already seen going
to the app catalog in our previous demo so
let me go to Purchase Apps. As you can see
here, I already have a warning that says
Sorry, this site does not support apps,
but you can still acquire them and add
them on other sites. Let's take one for
example; I'll just take the first one that
shows up, Easy-Quiz. As you can see, this
one is free so I can simply add it. So
I'll click on Add It. It will just ask me
to confirm. I will click on Continue, and
then I will return to my site. It has
already added it. Now let me go back into
the apps management, and here, now that I
have that app, I can also go into Manage
Licenses where I can see all of the
different apps that got purchased from
this store, apps that I install like I did
before using SharePoint Framework package
or Built-In House are not going to show up
in this view. This is really for apps from
the store. As you see, all of the apps
that I have right now are free so I do not
have any users assigned expiration date or
things like that; however, if I did, I
could go in manage the license, and add
the different people that can use this
app, as well as license managers. Now let
me go back into the admin center. I will
go into Apps again, and we're going to
look at the next one which is Configuring
Store Settings. Here I can really say that
users are not able to purchase apps by
themselves. So when I click No, instead of
showing as Get It on an app page for a
user, it will show as requested. Once a
user requests it, it will show up in the
App Requests, in the app catalog where as
an administrator you can go and you can
approve them. Also, the other option, do
you want to allow apps for Office from the
store to be able to start when documents
are opened in the browser? This is really
up to you as an admin if you want to allow
that or not. Let me go back to the App
Management page. The next one is Monitor
Apps. Something really important that I
mentioned in the slides is that
applications are not automatically added
here. So even if we just added the
Easy-Quiz app, it's not automatically
monitored. So usually what I do is as soon
as I purchase an app, I add it to my
monitored list, because if it has errors
or things like that, it's usually too late
when a user reports it to get the error in
the past. So really, by adding it as soon
as you get it, you make sure that when
users report errors, it's already
monitored and you can see what happened.
The information about installed locations
and runtime errors is only updated once
every 24 hours. So don't be scared if you
deploy it somewhere and it doesn't refresh
here. It's really once every 24 hours so
you have to give it time. This is it for
the managing apps part of this module. Now
let's go back to the slides and finish off the module.
