Newbie question on Android App Deployment

donh_sbht — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 20:40:40 GMT

I am trying to install a custom App to a Samsung Tab A. I have tried downloading the app and building a package that I upload the app to the Meraki cloud.

The app link is https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1925npmk13YJO_oOBxw5OofKNQeSenHfq and it is valid because I will able to pull the app down directly to the device.

When I download the app down to my computer the filename is incab-release-4.1.10.13(32).apk.

When I built the app I used the following information

Name = Transflo Incab

Identifier = incab-release-4.1.10.13(32).apk

Icon URL = https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1925npmk13YJO_oOBxw5OofKNQeSenHfq

Version = 4.1.10.13(32)

Source Upload to Meraki Cloud and drug the file into the box

Options

Keep app up to date = Unchecked

Auto-install / auto-uninstall = Checked

remove with MDM = Unchecked

Visable in SSP = Checked

When I deployed I received this error on the device = INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK:/data/app/vmdl1256105429.tmp/com.meraki.sm.managedapps/ManagedAppsInstallJobServcie.SM_CUSTOM_APP_INSTALL_SESSION specific package incab-release-4.1.10.13(32).apk inconsistent with com.pegasustranstech.transmobileplus.incab

I suspect I am entering the wrong information in the App page so can someone assist with what should be the correct entries to build a package?

I believe:

Identifier = incab-release-4.1.10.13(32).apk

Should match your app ID of com.pegasustranstech.transmobileplus.incab.

Thanks for the reply, but I still have a question, is the APP ID then the numbers in the download string. Or is the APP Id something that I need to get from Pegasus?

The APP ID is embedded in the APK file by the developer when they make it.

In this case we know that APP ID from the error produced.
