Question: Best practices for publishing a private/LOB app via Managed Google Play

Hello Android Enterprise Community,

​I am looking for some guidance regarding app publication for our organization. We have developed a custom/line-of-business (LOB) Android app that we need to deploy internally to our managed devices, but I want to make sure we follow the proper procedures.

​Could anyone share the recommended workflow or best practices for this? Specifically:

  1. ​Is it better to publish the private app directly through our EMM console (using the Managed Google Play iframe) or via the standard Google Play Console?
  2. ​What are the key things to keep in mind regarding Organization IDs to ensure only our targeted devices can see and download the app?
  3. ​How long does the initial publishing/approval process typically take for enterprise private apps?

​For context, we are currently using [Insert your EMM provider here, e.g., Microsoft Intune, VMware Workspace ONE, Ivanti] to manage our fleet.

​Any advice, documentation links, or tips from your own deployment experiences would be highly appreciated!

​Thank you,

Alaul
