AppManagement Shared Service Proxy is not installed : Error in SharePoint 2013 designer workflow when publishing

Hello,

I configured the workflow manager and created a SharePoint designer workflow and tried to publish the workflow and got the following error.

“Errors were found when compiling the workflow. The workflow files were saved but cannot be run. Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: App Management Shared Service Proxy is not installed”

Causes for this : 

• App Management service is stopped (or)
• No App Management service application is exist (or)
• The App Management service appn is not associated with the default proxy group

Resolution :

AppManagement service is stopped :

Go to Central Administration àManage services on server under system settings section à Start the AppManagement Service if it is in stop mode

No App Management service application is exist (or not created yet) :

Go to Central Administration àManage service applicationsà Create AppManagement Service if already not exist

The App Management service appn is not associated with the default proxy group

Go to Central Administration àApplication Management Tabà  Configure Service Application associations under Service Applications section à Add App management service app proxy to default group if not already added.

Thanks
