Install and access App Management

App Management is available in the Commerce Admin for eligible Commerce instances. Availability depends on your deployment type.

Availability

After meeting the following requirements, select the corresponding tab for your deployment type below, to see whether App Management requires installation or is already available on your instance.

Prerequisites

Before associating an app, ensure you have the following:

Requirement
Description
Admin access
Commerce Admin with App Management permissions
Deployed app
App Builder application deployed to your organization and ready to connect
Organization access
Access to the Adobe organization where the app is deployed
Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service
App Management is available automatically on Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service. No installation is required. Enable it in the Admin and start associating apps.
Adobe Commerce on Cloud (PaaS) and on-premises
  • Adobe Commerce 2.4.8 and later—App Management is included automatically. No installation is required.

  • Adobe Commerce 2.4.5 to 2.4.7—Install the Admin UI SDK (which includes App Management) using Composer:

    code language-bash
    composer require "magento/commerce-backend-sdk": ">=3.3"
    

    Then run:

    code language-bash
    composer update
    bin/magento setup:upgrade
    bin/magento indexer:reindex
    bin/magento cache:clean
    

See Install or update Adobe Commerce Admin UI SDK for more information.

Access App Management

  1. Log in to the Commerce Admin.

  2. Navigate to Apps > App Management.

The App Management view displays. Here, you can associate, configure, and manage App Builder applications.

Installing App Builder apps

If you need to install an App Builder app from Adobe Exchange (for example, a pre-built integration or marketplace app), see Install App Builder apps from Adobe Exchange for step-by-step instructions.

After an app is installed and deployed, use App Management to associate it with your Commerce instance and configure its settings.

Commerce webhooks and apps

Some App Builder applications use Adobe Commerce webhooks so that Commerce can call your app over HTTP when certain events occur (for example, after a product is saved). Webhook endpoints and subscription logic are defined by the app developer when the application is built and deployed; store administrators do not configure webhooks separately in App Management.

After you associate the app with your Commerce instance and complete any setup instructions from the app, webhook behavior follows the app’s implementation.

If App Management cannot trigger the app’s validation endpoint (for example, the URL is unreachable or the response does not meet requirements), you may see an error similar to the following in the App Management dashboard:

Webhook validation error {width="600" modal="regular"}

Work with the app developer to correct the webhook configuration or deployment so validation can succeed.

App developers. To implement webhook subscriptions and handler responses from App Builder, see Webhooks in the Commerce Extensibility developer documentation and the @adobe/aio-commerce-lib-webhooks package on GitHub.
