App Portal 2017 R2
With App Portal, you can deliver a universal enterprise app store: both desktop and mobile applications together. You can connect App Portal to an AirWatch server and create catalog items for Apple iOS and Google Android mobile apps, both internal and public store. This gives you license compliance, deployment automation, and control.
To connect App Portal to an AirWatch server, you need to enter settings on the AirWatch tab of the Site Management > Settings > Deployment view.
