This example installs the NAV App with the specified name and version for the tenant with the ID Tenant1. If the NAV App includes a database schema change, the tenant database is automatically synchronized.

EXAMPLE 2

Description


This example installs a NAV App that is returned from the Get-NAVAppInfo cmdlet for the tenant with the ID Tenant1. If the NAV App contains a database schema change, the tenant database is automatically synchronized.

EXAMPLE 3

Install-NAVApp -ServerInstance DynamicsNAV -Path '.\Proseware SmartApp.navx' -Tenant 'Tenant1'

This example installs the NAV App at the specified path for the tenant with the ID Tenant1. The NAV App must have already been published to the server instance before you can install it for the tenant.

If the NAV App contains a schema change, the tenant database will be synchronized but since the -DoNotLoadData switch was used any data backed up from a previous uninstall of this NAV App will not be loaded.

This example installs the NAV App with the provided name and version on a single tenant NAV server instance. If the NAV App contains a schema change, the tenant database will be synchronized.
