Best practice to publish and deploy on-premise scoped application

[charlesdean]

Hi,

We're ready to deploy our on-premise Dev instance scoped application to our Test server, and the recommended method does not appear to be available in our on-premise environment.  

Specifically, the following step is not displayed on our instance as per the recommended BP page:

4. Click the Make App available on other instances related link.

https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/london-application-development/page/build/applications/task/t_PublishAppsToTheAppRepository.html

Am I missing a step that would cause this missing step to be displayed, or is this an on-premise instance limitation?

If this is an on-premise instance limitation, then what is the recommended best practice for publishing and deploying on-premise scoped applications?

Thank you

Hi Charles,

1. Register your on-premise instance on HI as per this article: https://hi.service-now.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0551693
2. Once the step 1 has been completed above, please have your internal IT team to open up network ports to “https://apprepo.service-now.com”

3. Login back to your instance after 24hours and you should be able to share your app internally.
