This feature is currently only available through an invitation-only Private Preview, as both it and the documentation are under development, incomplete, and subject to change.

Once this feature is released, it will be announced, and this banner will be removed.

Once an app has been added to the External catalog of Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud, it can be deployed like any other app, but with some subtle differences.

To deploy an app from the External catalog:

1. From the PMPC Cloud Portal, navigate to App Catalog | External

2. On the External catalog page, locate the required app and click it to open its properties.

1. Click Deploy to start the Deployment Wizard.

1. On the Risk of External App dialog box, read the warning about deploying an external app, and if you accept the risks, click Confirm

1. Follow the Deploy an App using Patch My PC Cloud process to complete the deployment.

Note

The first time any customer deploys an external app that has not previously been deployed using PMPC Cloud, we download the installer to our storage. If this occurs, you will see the Downloading Installer dialog shown below, which will automatically close once the download has completed.
