Note
If two apps with the same appname are assigned to the same operator tenant, and one of these apps is already registered, then you will not be able to register the other app. To register the app, you must deregister the previously registered app. Example: Two developers "DevA" and "DevB" have created apps "app1" with version 1.0.0 and "app1" with version 2.0.0 respectively and have assigned the apps to the same operator "Oper1". Consider that "app1" with version 1.0.0 is already in the registered state. Now, if you want to register "app1" 2.0.0, then you must first deregister "app1" 1.0.0.
Deregister self-hosted application¶
To deregister a self-hosted application, proceed with the following steps:
- In the "My Applications" window, click on the "UI Apps" tab. Then, click on any application that you want to deregister.
- Click on the "Provisioning" tab. If there are any customers provisioned for that application, then you need to de-provision them. To de-provision, select the customer and click "Remove from customer".
- Navigate to the "Registration" tab in the side navigation. If necessary, you can edit the application details by clicking on the "Edit" button, and then save the changes by clicking on the "Save Changes" button. If you do not want to edit the application details, you can directly proceed with the deregistration by clicking on the "De-Register" button.
You can also view the status of deregistration in the "Registration" screen.
