Specify the shared network location for storing internal apps

If you have an on-premises BlackBerry UEM environment, before you add internal apps to the available app list, you must specify a shared network location to store the app source files that you upload. This is required for internal apps for iOS, Windows 10, and Android devices that don't allow access to Google Play in the work profile. To make sure that internal apps remain available, this network location should have a high availability solution and should be backed up regularly. If you have BlackBerry UEM Cloud, you don't need to specify a network location for app files.

  • Create a shared network folder to store the source files for internal apps. Do not create the shared network folder in the UEM installation folder (it will be deleted the next time you upgrade UEM).
  • Verify that the service account for the computer that hosts UEM has read and write access to the shared network folder.
  1. In the management console, on the menu bar, click Settings > App management > Internal app storage.
  2. In Network location field, type the path of the shared network folder in the following UNC format:
    \\<computer_name>\<shared_network_folder>
    For example: \\ComputerName\Applications\InternalApps.
  3. Click Save.
