Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately for me this hasn't worked

{
    "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/json-schemas/teams/v1.7/MicrosoftTeams.schema.json",
    "manifestVersion": "1.7",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "id": "????",
    "packageName": "com.wsl.portal.app",
    "developer": {
        "name": "Coder 365",
        "websiteUrl": "https://westerdale.blog",
        "privacyUrl": "https://parkersplace.com/privacy",
        "termsOfUseUrl": "https://parkersplace.com/termsofuse"
    },
    "icons": {
        "color": "color.png",
        "outline": "outline.png"
    },
    "name": {
        "short": "Company intranet",
        "full": "Company Intranet"
    },
    "description": {
        "short": "My great intranet app",
        "full": "Demo of the intranet which I surface as a personal app"
    },
    "accentColor": "#267938",
    "staticTabs": [
        {
            "entityId": "Home Tab",
            "name": "Intranet",
            "contentUrl": "https://<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/teamslogon.aspx?SPFX=true@dest=/sites/DemoTheLanding",
            "websiteUrl": "https://<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/DemoTheLanding",
            "scopes": [
                "personal"
            ]
        }
    ],
    "permissions": [
        "identity",
        "messageTeamMembers"
    ],
    "validDomains": [
        "<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com"
    ],
    "webApplicationInfo": {
        "id": "00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000",
        "resource": "https://<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com"
    }
}

If this only not working for me in this FR tenant then it is either the manifest or something else going on in my tenant e.g. the senstivity labels I have been recently testing. Tomorrow I will repeat on my other tenant.

One thing I forgot to mention,
After you re-zip the package, don't import the zip in App Studio > Manifest editor > Import an existing app.
Rather, upload it as a custom app (like shown below) and it works.

  Thanks for the advice. I have only ever being uploaded the package file using the method you have suggested.

Daniel WesterdaleThe attached worked for me. You will have to edit the json replacing XXX as needed and read notes.

  Thank you both for steering me to a sucessful resolution.
  
  the issue is ....
  
  "contentUrl": "https://<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/teamslogon.aspx?SPFX=true@dest=/sites/DemoTheLanding",
  
  Needs to be changed to
  
  "contentUrl": "https://<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/teamslogon.aspx?SPFX=true&dest=/sites/DemoTheLanding",
  
  I think I introduced this typo .
  
  However, does beg the question why I am not able to use the schema in VSCode to stop me making these sort of mistakes.
