Now that there is an application description field, it would be relevant to make this field accessible from the appGroups API

And if you modify this endpoint, it will be nice to retrive not only publish apps and enable for example filter.
My last point, since bots configuration are at workspace level, is API retrieve data only link to a workspace?

Thanks

Would it be possible to include the workspace for each app?

Hi @OliverGnepper - apologies for the delay. Thanks for the product suggestion. We’ve logged this request in our system and will see what we can do.

Any chance you’re able to share more about what you’re trying to accomplish with the appGroups API and the description/workspace for each app?

If you’d prefer to meet and discuss, here is my calendar to schedule a convenient time for you.

Looking forward to continuing the discussion.

Hi @shep,

we are looking forward to provide an app store for our tulip apps. Since we are not eager to update all app related information manually we intended to use the appGroups endpoint to retrieve a list of apps, with their folder, status, app description and workspace. Since the description and the workspace are missing in this endpoint I would be pleased if you could add these field to the schema.

Hi @OliverGnepper,

Thanks for the additional details. At this time, we don’t have plans to update the appGroups API. However, we are planning work to develop a new Apps API. We’ve noted your need for the App Description, and will keep you posted on this ongoing work.

@shep could you share any details/plans on the new App API that is being considered?

I’m also interested in using this API to quickly review the status of all apps in the instance. When I use the existing AppGroup API it appears I can’t even determine if an App had been archived as it still shows nested in the same parent folder.

Apps being included in the API that were archived is my concern today but like other users have said including additional fields such as Description, Status, Latest Published Version, Latest Publish Date, List of approvers on latest version, Description of Change, Selected Approvers, and if the Status is “Pending Approval” maybe even the list of approvers which haven’t yet approved it.

@doneil I unfortunately don’t have specifics I can give today for the new Apps API. However, we are working on it and will definitely consider the fields and data you mentioned in our plans for it.
