      Later, if user A publishes an application to my repository in the development environment, the application will be published to the custom repository. Before other users under the account install applications in my repository in the sandbox or runtime environment, they need to enable the configuration function by referring to 1 and customize the repository by referring to 2 so that they can view the applications released by user A to the private repository.

3. User A obtains the software package to be installed in the development environment by referring to Releasing and Deploying the Installation Package or Patch Package of Applications Developed on Huawei Cloud Astro Zero.

   In my repository, only asset packages (installation or patch packages) published by users can be installed. Source code packages cannot be installed.

4. User B logs in to the runtime environment where the asset package is to be installed. Enable the configuration function by referring to 1 and customize a repository by referring to 2. The OBS information configured during repository customization must be the same as that configured for user A.
5. In the navigation pane of Environment Configuration in user B's runtime environment, choose Application Management > Installation Management > Package Repository, and install the application.
