App publishing methods

There are several ways to publish apps on Google Play and on the Apple App Store. Here are the options available to you that can be executed in both stores in partnership with InEvent:

What options do I have regarding having my app published?

These are the viable possibilities by the Global standard of the app stores and InEvent.

1. Direct publishing via InEvent with global access
2. Direct publishing via InEvent with admin access
3. File generation with or without certificates: files exportation

Direct publishing via InEvent with global access

This option equips InEvent with identical access and login details to the user that opened the store.

To do this, simply input this information into your Company Details page.

InEvent's team will be responsible for carrying out the app development and publishing processes, such as:

• Downloading certificates
• File creation and store upload

For the Google Play Store, you must send us the API Key. Click here to read a guide on how to create the API Key.

Direct publishing via InEvent with admin access

If InEvent does not have global access, a customer success representative will create an email to be added by the client in this store to grant us admin access. The client would need to follow this step-by-step: Adding users inside stores.

In this case, our team will be responsible for carrying out the App development and publishing processes, such as downloading certificates, file creation, and upload.

For the Google Play Store, you must send us the API Key. Click here to read a guide on how to create the API Key.
