I just submitted a binary for an update to an existing app on the amazon app store and realized there was a mistake in it. I went to reject it but I see no way to do it once I've hit submit. Any ideas on how I can reject the Bianry of the app update and add a new one?
Thanks,
Nick
to have an in-process app put back into a state where you can submit a new version simply use the Contact Us form in the developer portal and they can do that for you pretty quickly

We have developed a app for Microsoft teams and our first version was published on the app store. We are now working on the next version. However we are not sure how we have to submit the new version for team store review without impacting the existing users. For instance, some of our bot commands will behave differently in the new version. If we have only one backend instance running, when we submit it to store team for review we will impact the experience of existing production users as well.
Ideally we would follow a blue-green approach to release new features to selected customers, but in this case we are not really sure how and where to differentiate requests coming (mainly through bot communication, since we can add a app version header in web communication) from multiple versions of the app. We thought of creating new set of resources (app registration, bot channel registration etc) on Azure portal but I guess that would be treated as a new app and not a version update.
Any ideas or pointers on how to achieve this would be of great help.
This is a good point, I don't think there's anything out of the box to deal with this. What you've suggested might indeed be the best way:
create new app registration & bot channel registration, with temporary name (e.g. MyBot2)
update manifest to use new bot, and submit for store approval with this manifest
once approved, and app is live (you can schedule a go-live time when you submit the app), rename both bots (original to MyBotV1 or something, and MyBot2 to MyBot)
In any case, I'd work with the app submission team around this, they're very helpful and engaged.
I am developing a Uber-like project using Ionic 3. There is an app for the passenger and another one for the driver. Both need to subscribe to OneSignal notifications.
The problem happens when my Laravel server needs to deliver a notification: Both apps have the same OneSignal player ID (based on the device instead of app id), that is, a notification that should be handled by the passenger can be sent to the driver, if both apps are installed on the same device.
So, I need help to know the best way to overcome this problem:
Create another OneSignal app and find a way to make my Laravel server choose which ONESIGNAL_APP_ID and ONESIGNAL_REST_API_KEY to send the notifications to the right app. (Practical, but I'm not sure if this is possible).
Generate another OneSignal Player ID for one of the apps by changing the OneSignal plugin source code. (This solution sounds very stupid, but would solve everything at once)
Make app 1 open app 2 if notification should be sent to app 2. Find a way to pass notification information between apps (deep links?) and make app 2 treat the received information as it was the original notification. (It would be necessary to make it work on Android as well as on iOS. Would it be worth it?)
Just use a service for push notifications that can send the notification based on app id and re-configure the Laravel server.
Which one would be the best alternative? Can there be another one?
My advice is to use Tags. In driver app you will do something like this.
this.oneSignal.sendTag("driver", "true");
this.oneSignal.sendTag("passenger", "false");
and for passenger :
this.oneSignal.sendTag("driver", "false");
this.oneSignal.sendTag("passenger", "true");
I'm working on GSuite application and wondered how my backend can be notified when new domain admin installs my app?
You can use the license notification api to retrieve a list of current installs. https://developers.google.com/apps-marketplace/v2/reference/licenseNotification/list
After installation the user will probably start or setup your app. You could add your own webhook notification when the user goes through this First Run Experience. (This is what we did)
There is another thing you might be able to pull off: As far as i know, an event is fired to Google Analytics on install. Maybe you can add an alert/webhook in Google Analytics.
However, i was having some problems with the events to show up in GA in the first place.
I can not find a SignUp Button or a register button on parse. Is it possible new users to register on the site? All I want is to save an android data to a cloud/server with very simple way.
Yeah, You cannot currently setup a new account with Parse.com. This is because the entire platform offering is being shutdown.
They have however open source a majority of the technology behind the platform.
Visit https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server for how to setup your self-hosted instance of the parse-server.
You can however check out http://firebase.com. Their offering is similar to Parse
Goodluck
I have been developing in Windows Phone 8 for a couple of months. Currently, I am developing an app that consume some XML to show data. I know how the Toast notification works in WP8, however my doubt is about the following:
In the App I am working on, I would like to implement a kind of Toast Notification when a new data is available (from the source where the XML is extracted). So, is it possible? If so, how to implement it in WP8?
I don't know if you are familiar with the App of dictionary.com. In that App, there is an option to enable the notification for the word of the day. So, every day I recieve a different word in english. When I click in the notification I can see it's meaning.
Any clue, link, post, code or suggestion would be very appreciate
Thanks in advance
Regards!
There can be many ways. My idea will be to use Azure Mobile Services. To explain, let me take same fictitious Dictionary.com example. The WP app will be bound to Azure Mobile Service and it will show all the words fetched from that service. Whenever, I add a new word to this service, using Push Notifications, it will send notification to all my users who've installed Dictionary.com app, stating new word is added.
