通过Apple批量购买计划分发自定义B2B iOS应用程序? [英] Distribute Custom B2B iOS app through Apple Volume Purchase Program?
问题描述
我们的要求是为组织内超过1000个用户分发iOS应用.
我的问题:我们是否可以使用iOS开发者配置概要文件制作 Distribution iPA (因为我们有99美元的Apple帐户而非企业帐户)并与VPP和Apple MDM(内存设备管理)共享?选择企业Apple帐户?
**注意1-不需要使用Adhoc Provisioning Profile，因为它需要在Apple帐户中注册的所有设备，并且我们有1000多个Apple设备.
**注意2-已经浏览过其他相关文章，但已经找到使用VPP分发iOS的步骤，所有文章都建议使用Enterprise Distribution(我们的要求是使用VPP，因为我们的商业客户已经拥有VPP)
**注3-我们已经开发了一个iOS应用程序，不想通过VPP共享购买的应用程序. 请提出任何指导我通过VPP部署App的参考.
如果一个组织既是应用程序的开发人员又是应用程序的使用者，则企业程序成员身份是一种可行的方法.拥有企业会员资格，您可以:
- 开发应用
- 签署这些应用以供私人分发
- 分发这些应用程序，而无需经过Apple批准程序
- 通过私人应用商店/内联网/MDM系统等分发这些应用.
如果您想向一个或多个独立于开发人员的企业客户提供应用程序，则正确的方法是使用个人会员身份和B2B分发.在此处中概述了这些步骤，但在摘要中:
- 您可以像往常一样开发应用程序
- 您在iTunes Connect中为该应用创建了一个条目，并在定价和可用性部分 中将指定为自定义B2B应用
- 您还可以指定适用于此应用的价格等级.您可以选择免费套餐，并根据需要直接与客户安排付款.
- 指定要提供给VPP客户的AppleID
-
按照常规方式提交应用程序以供Apple批准
2019附录
一个组织现在可以向自己提供B2B应用程序. B2B应用程序的优点是它们永不过期，并且不需要定期进行配置文件验证和刷新.缺点是仍然存在审核过程，因此，如果您做的事情无法通过审核，则可能会遇到问题.审核过程还引入了一些发布延迟.
Our requirement is to distribute iOS app for more than 1000+ users within the Organization.
My question : Can we make Distribution iPA using iOS Developer Provisioning Profile (As We have $99 Apple Account Not Enterprise Account) and share it with VPP and Apple MDM (Memory Device Management) or should i opt for Enterprise Apple account ?
**Note1 - Dont want to use Adhoc Provisioning Profile as it require all devices registered in apple account and we have 1000+ Apple Devices.
**Note2 - Already gone through other related post but dint find the steps to disbtribute the iOS using VPP , all post suggest to use Enterprise Distribution (Our requirement is to use VPP since Our business customer have already have VPP )
**Note3 - We have developed an iOS app , not want to share purchased app through VPP . Kindly Suggest any reference which guides me to deploy App through VPP.
If the one organisation is both the developer and the consumer of the app, then an enterprise program membership is a possible approach. With an enterprise membership you can:
- Develop apps
- Sign those apps for private distribution
- Distribute those apps, without going through the Apple approval process
- Distribute those apps via a private app store/intranet/MDM system etc.
If you want to provide apps to one or more enterprise customers that are independent of the developer then an individual membership and B2B distribution is the correct approach. The steps are outlined here but in summary:
- You develop your app as you normally would
- You create an entry for that app in iTunes connect, specifying Available privately as a custom B2B app in the Pricing and availability section
- You can also specify the price tier that applies to this app. You can select the free tier and arrange payment directly with the customer if you prefer.
- Nominate an AppleID associated with the VPP customer you are going to supply to
Submit the app for Apple approval as per usual
2019 addendum
It is now possible for an organisation to provide B2B apps to themselves. The advantage of B2B apps is that they never expire and don't require periodic provisioning profile validation and refresh. The disadvantage is that there is still a review process, so if you are doing things that won't pass review you can have an issue. The review process also introduces some release delay.
