Updating an application

After your application is published in Kaspersky Appicenter, you can update it by adding a new version.

To update a published application:

  1. In the Kaspersky Appicenter for Developers portal, use the main menu to go to the Applications section.

    A list of all added applications is displayed.

  2. In the list of applications, find the application that you want to update and click on the latest version with the Published status under the application name.

    For each application, the list shows no more than two versions.

  3. On the application page, click the Create new version button.

    A page with a form for creating a new application version opens, where you can upload the files of the new version and specify information about this version of the application.

    The fields in the form are grouped into several sections. You can go to a specific section using the navigation on the right. After you correctly fill in all the required fields in one section, a confirmation icon appears in the navigation next to the name of this section.

    The entered information is saved automatically. While filling out the form, you can also save the entered information without submitting the form by clicking the Save as draft button in order to fill out the form later. This button becomes active when you have filled in at least one field in the form.

  4. In the Application upload block, specify the following information about the new application version:
    1. In the KPA file field, upload the new version of the application file.

      The maximum file size is 500 MB. Make sure the application file complies with the requirements and is signed with a private key.

    2. In the Electronic signature field, upload the application's electronic signature file in the SIG format.

      An electronic signature file is created automatically when an application is signed with a private key. An electronic signature is used to confirm the validity of keys. The maximum file size is 1 MB.

    3. In the Version field, specify the application version.
    4. In the What's new field, specify the main changes that have been made in the new version of the application.

    All other settings blocks are pre-filled based on the previous version. If necessary, you can also change the information in other fields.

  5. When you have filled in all the required fields and are ready to publish the application version, click the Submit for review button.

    The button becomes active only after you fill in all the required fields in the Application upload section.

The new version of the application will be sent for review. The application status will be indicated in the application list in the Applications section. After the review is complete, you will receive an email with the results.

If the application passes verification, its status will change to Ready for publication. You need to publish the application manually for it to appear in the Kaspersky Appicenter application showcase, Kaspersky Security Center, and on devices running KasperskyOS.
