Add a preview audience for an Azure Application offer

  • Άρθρο

This article describes how to configure a preview audience for an Azure Application offer in the commercial marketplace. You need to define a preview audience who can review your offer listing before it goes live.

Define a preview audience

On the Preview audience page, you can define a limited audience who can review your Azure Application offer before you publish it live to the broader marketplace audience. You define the preview audience using Azure subscription IDs, along with an optional description for each. Neither of these fields can be seen by customers. You can find your Azure subscription ID on the Subscriptions page in the Azure portal.

Note

A preview audience differs from a private audience. A preview audience is allowed access to your offer before it's published live in the online stores. They can see and validate all plans, including those which will be available only to a private audience after your offer is fully published to the marketplace. You can make a plan available only to a private audience. A private audience (defined in a plan's Availability tab) has exclusive access to a particular plan.

Add a minimum of one and up to 10 Azure subscription IDs, either individually (up to 10) or by uploading a CSV file (up to 100) to define who can preview your offer before it is published live. If your offer is already live, you can still define a preview audience for testing offer changes or updates to your offer.

Note

Previews aren't supported by offers configured to be available to the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program.

  8. In the Confirm dialog box, select Yes.
