# Application Repository in ServiceNow Studio

Publish custom applications from ServiceNow Studio to the ServiceNow Application Repository to distribute them to other instances in the organization.

The Application Repository stores and distributes applications between instances within an organization. Each organization can view and manage only its own published applications — applications published by other organizations are not visible.

After developing and testing an app in ServiceNow Studio and selecting **Deploy**, publish the application to the Application Repository to make it available to other instances in the organization. For more information about the publishing process, see [Publish app changes to the Application Repository from ServiceNow Studio](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/servicenow-studio-classic/qs-publish-changes-to-app-using-app-repo.md).

**Note:** If your app was created in ServiceNow IDE and converted to Fluent, you must switch from ServiceNow Studio back into the ServiceNow IDE for the publishing and deployment process.

For more information, see [ServiceNow application repository](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/application-repository-self-hosted/app-repo.md).
