Allow custom apps to use Standards apps in catalogue as dependancies

When creating custom apps you are unable to setup a dependancy for a standard catalogue app natively in the cloud portal.

To achieve this you need to do it natively in intune and it breaks the updates to dependant apps leaving old versions orphaned.


Example - Custom app that requires Amazon Corretto 8


We create the custom app and we apply depenancy in Intune.

This Corretto catalogue version is then never deleted as its a static dependancy leaving us with more versions than specified in config.

    Hello,

    I have tested this personally over the course of the last 3 weeks.

    1. Created a Custom App in the PMPC Cloud Portal (Contoso CRM)

    2. Deployed a PMPC App --> AWS Command Line Interface V2 (this app gets a new version ever 2-3 days)

    3. Deployed the Custom App from the PMPC Cloud Portal AND created a dependency on the PMPC app. This can be done in the Cloud Portal already, you just need to deploy the app first, for now

    4. Monitored the custom app. The dependency chain was always updated and maintained

    In short, when deploying a Custom App created within the PMPC CLoud Portal, you can create dependency rules on PMPC app, with the precondition that you deploy that first.

    You can deploy it without any assignments, just to have it as a win32 app.

    If you're still having issues, please open a support case with our team.

    If I misunderstood the issue, please reply to this comment. For now, we're marking this idea as Shipped, since we have the functionality
