Allow AppSource ISV publishers to test and collect early feedback on the new version of their app by organizing a private preview with a select group of their customers.

Feature details

AppSource ISVs will be able to test and collect early feedback on the new versions of their apps by organizing a private preview with a select group of their customers.

When uploading an app to AppSource, publishers will be able to keep the app in preview mode. This will provide publishers with a link to the preview app that includes a custom "flightcode," which can be sent to selected customers. Customers who opt into the preview can then install and test that app in their environments and provide feedback to the ISV.

Use preview ability for your AppSource submission in Partner Center

As a publisher, you can choose the flightcode, or have one generated automatically.

You can specify a flight code manually in Partner Center
