    Deactivate/Activate

    By default, apps activate automatically when published. When you deactivate an app, app users can not access it. You might want to do this when you are updating the app.

    If you chose to deactivate an app earlier, you can reactivate it at any time.

    To activate/deactivate an app, do the following:
    1. Select Activate / Deactivate to confirm.

    Once an app is successfully activated / deactivated, it appears as Active / Inactive the App Manager view.
