      Hi Paul,

       

      Thanks for the reply.

       

      However, I am not able to get the Site Collection List using the _getListData() method in GetSiteCollectionListWebPart.ts in O365 using SharePoint Framework (SPFx):

       

      export interface ISiteCollectionLists {
      value: ISiteCollectionList[];
      }

       

      export interface ISiteCollectionList {
      SiteCollectionName: string;
      SiteCollectionUrl: string;
      }

       

      private _getListData(): Promise<ISiteCollectionLists> {
      return this.context.spHttpClient.get(this.context.pageContext.web.absoluteUrl + "/_api/search/query?querytext='contentclass:sts_site'", SPHttpClient.configurations.v1)
      .then((response) => {
      return response.json();
      });
      }

       

      Please let me know the corrections to be made in _getListData() method.

       

      Thanks in advance.

        I noticed a HTTP 500 server error occurs in your code. This has to do with the OData version being supporoted by SP Search REST API. After changing your _getListData method as below I got it working:

         

        private _getListData(): Promise<ISiteCollectionLists> {
    const spSearchConfig: ISPHttpClientConfiguration = {
      defaultODataVersion: ODataVersion.v3
    };

    return this.context.spHttpClient.get(this.context.pageContext.web.absoluteUrl + "/_api/search/query?querytext='contentclass:sts_site'", SPHttpClient.configurations.v1.overrideWith(spSearchConfig))
      .then((response) => {
        return response.json();
      });
  }

        You have to import some additional types for the above to work, see the blog below for details:

        Hope this helps!
