Managing App Trains

TrueNAS has a pre-built official catalog of available iXsystems-approved applications.

Users can configure and add catalog trains if they choose. The default train is stable which shows the apps found in the charts repository. Other available trains are enterprise and community.

TrueNAS uses outbound ports 80/443 to retrieve the TRUENAS catalog.

To add or remove a train, from the Installed application screen, click Configuration then on Settings on the dropdown menu to open the Settings screen. You can also click Manage Installed Apps at the top right of the Discover screen to open the Installed screen.
