For each app in the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), you can define the update settings.

Manu path: UMS Web App > Apps > [name of the app] > Update Settings



To configure the update settings for an individual app:

  1. In the UMS Web App > Apps, select an app and navigate to Update Settings area.

  2. Click .

  3. Select the required settings:

    Automatic check for updates in UMS

    • Check for updates (Default): It will be automatically checked if a newer version of the app is available in the IGEL App Portal. The check is performed every 120 minutes (can be configured under Apps > Settings > Automatic Updates). You can trigger the import into the UMS by clicking the Import newest version from App Portal button.

    • Check for updates and auto-import into UMS: If available, a newer version of an app will be automatically imported from the IGEL App Portal. The automatic check for updates is performed every 120 minutes (can be configured under Apps > Settings > Automatic Updates).

    • Do not check for updates: It will not be automatically checked if a newer version of the app is available in the IGEL App Portal. You can manually check for updates by clicking the Check for updates button.


    Default Version for assigned devices

    • Auto-update Default Version to newest version: The newest imported version of an app will be automatically set as a Default Version. This does not apply to the already imported versions. 

      It is recommended to set a Default Version manually since a Default Version is set globally: If changed, all assignments where no version was explicitly specified will change with it.

    • Update Default Version manually (Default): You can manually select which version will be a Default Version, see How to Set a Default Version of an App in the IGEL UMS.


  4. Save the settings.
