Hi all, We have few concerns regarding mobile app installing REST API support in APPM.
In the new JAX-RS Rest API model, we have provided following API to install a mobile application via MDM. /api/appm/store/v1.1/apps/download Apart from that, below app installation options have to be supported by new REST APIs. - In App Manager, there is an option to enabling app binary direct download (<EnableDirectDownload> config in app-manager.xml). Once direct download is enabled, authorized and subscribed users should be able to download the app binaries directly without having MDM integrated. This particular requirement is not satisfied by currently available REST APIs. - Subscribed users should be able to obtain one-time download link for enterprise andrioid app binaries and generated plist config link for enterprise ios apps, so that the link can be shared via email, SMS etc. As per the discussion we had with the team, below are the alterations and additions to current API model in order to fulfill above requirements. 1. Adding new API to make mobile app subscriptions/download. This particular install won't have any interaction with MDM and it is dedicated to make subscription and return app url for users. This API will return generated one-time download link for enterprise android apps and one-time download link included plist config link for enterprise IOS apps. For mobile webapps and public android/IOS, this will return the app url. 2. In 1.2.0 Beta release, we already have a mobile binary retrieving API. That API has to be deprecated or removed, since we have a one-time download API. 3. Renaming the currently available API path (/api/appm/store/v1.1/apps/ download) in order to indicate the actual purpose of it. Your suggestions and comments are highly appreciated.
