Monitoring Status

Monitoring status is very important. When the App Installation is successfully done, we have to wait at least 8 hours to install the app in the organization groups. I usually use the company portal and its sync option from there.

This will reduce the waiting period, and we can easily get the result quickly. After the syncing, we can check the monitoring status through Apps> All apps, select or search the app you created, and you will get the monitoring result.
