Appcenter: Enable Intune refresh token after 90 days

[charleswkc]

Please allow editing of the Intune Store Connection

• When going into the Settings for an Intune Store Connection, it is not possible to do anything.

• This only affects Intune Store Connection. For App Store, you will be able to edit.

• This is a problem because the authentication token expires in 3 months. Once expired, you will see this error message when attempting to distribute an app via the same connection.

• Workaround: We have to delete the store connection each time the authentication token expires. In this case, we lose history of all the distributions done within the store connection.

• Request: Please help to enable editing for Intune Store Connection, even if it's just to re-authenticate the connection with the required Intune admin account.

Hi @charleswkc, would it be OK if renamed the feature request to "Enable Intune refresh token after 90 days"?

[charleswkc]

@Oddj0b in this case, yes. That is my only requirement - to be able to renew the token. Thanks!

We're also affected by this. Having the store connection expire really removes the benefit of being able to distribute via a few clicks as it then depends on a specific user with InTune credentials performing a release in case it's expired -- in which case, we may as well use InTune.

This is a pretty critical issue for our team too, it will become particularly acute when the application is handed over to support and any deployments become infrequent and handled by a 3rd party support organisation.

The current process of a "failure please contact support" that has to be interpreted as "create a whole new store connection" so that the deployment can be run means that it's probably better for us to document the manual APK upload precedure into Intune rather than using appcenter.

@Oddj0b Will you please provide an update about this request? We are still having to delete and re-create the store connection every time the token expires. Thank you.

Any update on this? This would help our team as well.

This has been a problem for us to. I really would love to know what the definition of soon is because it has been over a year we have been putting up with this. Refreshing the store connections is not a huge deal except that the guids change for the store which means we have to update all our deployment scripts in Azure Devops and when you have 12-16 of these that is a lot of work to do every 3 months.

Any update on this? This has been a problem for us for a while, thanks

Any update on this?
trying to recreate the connection only results in a new app in Intune and not updating the correct app.

Our team is also affected by this. It is very important for us to be able to renew this token or edit the existing store connection in AppCenter. This has effected our application deployments.

This is still an issue. Has been for years. One of the main reasons we are moving away from app center.
