[AppSource] Are Library apps uninstalled when dependents apps are ?

Posted on by 217

Hi,

For AppSource we can deploy app as "Library app". These extensions will be automatically installed when someone will install some of the apps that depends on it, say App B.

My question is as the title: if the customer uninstall App B, does the library app it depended on will be uninstalled to ?

If the customer has App B and App C that depends on the library app too, and decides to uninstall just App C. Does Business Central "knows" to not uninstall the library app that still gives functionalities to App B ?

I didn't find articles that can answer clearly this kind of question about library app.

Thanks for your answers ! :)

    Libraries are automatically added during INSTALL of the AppSource extension.

    Uninstalling AppSource extension won't uninstall libraries.
