We are on-prem and we use the auto-update in the customizations node of the sysconfig file to deploy a couple of client side dll’s when we change the version number: <customization name="OurConfig" directoryName="OurConfigDeployment" deploymentType="XCopy" version="11.2.400.7.16" />
As we prepare for the 2024.2 requirement for browser only launch, we are wondering if the Edge Agent does the autoupdate step when launching a classic menu entry.
Does anyone know the answer to this? I suspect that it does not, but am looking for confirmation. Thanks in advance.
The answer from Epicor Support to this question is no, it does not. Perhaps it needs to be part of the Edge Agent launch because I can’t run the auto-update from the smart client when the Edge Agent is running.
I did submit an Epicor Idea for this so if you have interest, please vote for it. Incorporate auto-update for the classic menu items using browser UX. There was another idea to Handle AutoUpdate with EdgeAgent running better so perhaps it is part of this idea.
