Deploying an App using Cloud

Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud

Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud can be used to deploy apps using Microsoft Intune.

Note

See Deploying the same App with multiple configurations for details on re-using a successfully deployed app for different configurations.

See Create a Deployment with No Assignments for details on how to create a deployment without assignments.

Deploying an app with PMPC Cloud involves configuring:

Deploying an App

To deploy an app using PMPC Cloud:

  1. Sign in to the portal at https://portal.patchmypc.com/

  2. Locate the required application on the App Catalog page.

Tip

Use the Search field to help you locate the app.

“App Catalog” page

Note

If an app (for example, the Windows version of Slack) has multiple versions available for different variants/installer types, the App Catalog shows the total number of available versions. If you hover your mouse over this, you can see the list of variants grouped accordingly. Only that version will be displayed if a single version is available for all variants.

  1. Click the app to open its properties.

    Application’s “Properties” page

  2. Click Deploy to start the Deployment Wizard.

Note

If the app you are deploying is also supported for macOS, you will see a separate Deploy option for macOS and you should follow the Deploy a macOS app process.

Also, if the app you are deploying is already published by our on-premises Publisher, you will see the This app is already deployed warning dialog stating that deploying the same app through both Publisher and PMPC Cloud can cause potential issues if there are differences between the deployment configurations. We therefore strongly recommend you only deploy an app through either Publisher PMPC Cloud to avoid such issues.

Click "Deploy" to start the Deployment Wizard

The General Information tab is displayed, which needs to be completed.
