Hi everyone, quick question. I uploaded an enterprise app into Hexnode a while back. Now I need to update the APK file. Is there a way to do that?

Hello @wilma  

You can update an enterprise APK file in Hexnode UEM using either of the following methods: 

  • Replace the existing APK in your inventory: Navigate to Apps tab in the Hexnode UEM portal. Select the enterprise app you want to update and click Edit from the settings (gear) icon. Select Change next to the APK file and upload the new version. This replaces the old APK while keeping the same app entry in your inventory.
  • Add the new APK as a fresh version: Go to Apps > +Add Apps > Enterprise App and upload the updated APK file. Once added, you can deploy the new version to devices using the Install Application action or by associating it with a Required Apps policy.

In both cases, ensure that the internal Version Code (the integer set by your developers) is higher than the version currently installed on the devices. If the version code is not incremented, the update will not trigger even if you upload a newer APK file.
