Working with MyApps

MyApps is a part of the Client Management Interface provided to the end users for accessing the device inventory, installing software, and accessing requests without going to any website or submitting the help-desk forms. You can view a list of all advertised software packages and operational rules which are available for download and installation on the local client. For information on how to advertise an operational rule on MyApps, see Advertising an Operational Rule.

IT resources can advertise available software applications, advanced actions, and quick links for the end-users. MyApps acts as a self-service for end users which they can use as per their schedule. It also reduces the dependency on the IT resources.
