Description
Developers have the option to have their apps distributed in Apple Business Manager as:
Public - available for all
Private - only available to specific business and organizations specified by the developer
Unlisted - only discoverable in Apple Business Manager if you have a direct link
If you need to get licenses for a Custom App which is distributed through the private method, the steps are slightly different than a normal public app.
