Hi,

I have create a managed application and deployed it to the market place.

My plan is called Silver with version 1.0

Now I have updated my Silver plan with an extended arm template and now has version 1.1

How can a customer deploy version 1.1 over version 1.0 without deleting version 1.0.
I though to reinstall it from the market place in de same resource group and with the same but then I get the message "This Application Resource Name is already taken."

So how can a customer update out managed application from version v1.0 to v1.1 ?

    HI @Don van Meel | Twyzer

    Azure Managed Applications do not currently support in-place upgrades directly via the Marketplace.

     Implement an Update Mechanism in Your Solution

     Design your solution (in the ARM templates or internal app logic) to support self-update

     Include an Azure Function, Logic App, or custom script inside the managed app to handle incremental updates

     Let customers trigger an update from a custom UI, like a portal extension or an exposed endpoint.

     Reference: For a sample implementation, refer to the Azure Managed Application Updating Sample on GitHub.

    Hope this helps!
