How to change the name of a Teams app package using Teams Toolkit (SPFx, VSC)
- Oct 04, 2023
You can change the name of your published app by modifying the
manifest.json
file. Theshort
andfull
names under thedescription
field in themanifest.json
file are used to set the name of your app.You need to click the Provision, Deploy, and then Publish buttons in succession.
- Provision: This step creates all the cloud resources your app needs to run.
- Deploy: This step deploys your app to the cloud resources that were created in the Provision step.
- Publish: This step publishes your app to Teams where it can be installed and used.
Each step depends on the previous one, so they need to be done in order. After you've made changes to your
manifest.json
file, you'll need to go through these steps again to apply the changes.Thanks,
