The appstore apps will have a boolean attribute to express if they are enterprise-only or not.

To get the enterprise-only apps included in the app list we get from the appstore, it will be necessary to provide a valid subscription key. This could be done with a header like Subscription-Key.

Additionally, in the apps management settings, there would be an "enterprise-only" category to make those apps more discoverable.
