Managing apps and app versions
The App List is a library of mobile apps that you can manage and prepare for deployment with a workflow. Each app in the app list is a logical container or folder that groups together versions of imported app binaries for iOS and/or Android, the corresponding workflow, and associated workflow runs.
This image shows the organization of the details, activity, and files for each app. Each app in the app list is a collection of app versions. Each execution of the workflow on a version creates a workflow run. The workflow run status provides status information about that execution of the workflow and access to artifacts created by that workflow run. See About the Workflow Run for more information.
When you manage an app, you start by importing a mobile app to the app list. Choose the app from the app list to see the app versions page. The app versions page is also the entry point to the workflow builder.
The App List includes this information about each app.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| App Name | Click on the name of the app to go to the App Versions page. The App Versions page is the main control page for an app and its workflow. |
| Versions | The number of versions included in the app for each mobile platform (iOS or Android icon) |
| Last Event | Date and time of most recent action or update |
| Event | Most recent action or update |
| By | Name of the user who performed the most recent event |
| Workflow Status | Status icon: Hover to show the description. |
Build numbers
A no-code integration step (such as BlackBerry) produces a unique build number that is distinct and separate from the official app's version number. This unique build number allows the app to be uploaded for distribution even when the mobile app's version has not changed. This is useful when running a no-code integration step multiple times on the same app version (for example, testing the app, making multiple fixes to the same app version).
This no-code integration step build number is different from a build number that might appear as part of the app version, as in "Version 1.31.2 (build 296)".
- The app version build number appears on the App List, and does not change during a workflow run.
- The no-code integration step build number appears on the General Information tab for a specific artifact.
