Application not published in G Suite marketplace


We have an application published in G Suite marketplace and it has suddenly disappeared.

We guess the problem is related with the migration from Chrome webstore, but we have updated the manifest following the steps in the documentation and the application is still not listed in any of them. However, we cannot find the app by url in G Suite marketplace but we can find it by url in Chrome webstore, what seems pretty strange.

Google Marketplace SDK is enabled and configured in Google Cloud Platform.

I read in the documentation that "Chrome Apps must use manifest version 2", so I don't know if we need to set this to version 1 for G Suite applications.

We are using the same manifest as the documentation, but including "GOOGLE_DRIVE" in the container:

{
  "manifest_version": 2,
  "name": "Welcome Aboard",
  "version": "0.0.0.1",
  "description": "a plain text description",
  "icons": {
    "128": "icons/128x128-icon.png",
    "16": "icons/16x16-icon.png"
  },
  "container": ["DOMAIN_INSTALLABLE","GOOGLE_DRIVE"],
  "api_console_project_id": "428464274542",
  "app" : {
    "launch" : {
      "web_url" : "http://www.example.com/morepath/"
    }
  }
}

Are we missing something?

Thank you in advance!


Solution

  • The problem is solved. We guess the manifest was old and needed to be reuploaded, after that it's just a matter of time because Google needs to validate it.

    Anyway we created a support ticket for Google and they didn't mention anything about that. In fact they didn't clarify what was the problem. Maybe they have accelerated the validation process after we contacted them.
