Using Mobile Administrator to Manage and Distribute Mobile Applications
Mobile Administrator allows you to manage and distribute your mobile applications. Mobile Administrator provides an app store where users can browse the app catalog to select applications to install. Mobile Administrator can send push notifications to users when updates are available for their installed applications.
You can configure a Mobile Project to use Mobile Administrator when you initially create the project using the New Mobile Development Project wizard. When you specify information for Mobile Administrator in the wizard, Mobile Development performs all the necessary configuration tasks for your Mobile Project.
If you do not specify information for Mobile Administrator in the New Mobile Development Project wizard and later decide you want to use Mobile Administrator for your project, you must configure the Mobile Project manually.
Before you can configure a Mobile Project to use Mobile Administrator, perform the following required setup in Mobile Administrator. For more detailed information, see the webMethods Mobile Administrator User’s Guide.
